Is there an explanation why integer fields use text type instead of number type?
Also in the integer range type?

maybe raise the version of "autonumeric": to "^4.7.0", to be able to use up down buttons for numeric fields?
modifyValueOnUpDownArrow and upDownStep options.

Not sure. I'm not a fan of up/down buttons. Would require an effort. Too busy for the next months.
