Description
As explained in http://dojotoolkit.org/forum/dijit-dijit-0-9/dijit-development-discussion/validation-textbox-design-request
<input dojotype=NumericTextBox>
and
<input dojotype=NumericTextBox value="">
should show a blank textbox rather than 0, to allow optional number fields in a form, and also because that's how normal HTML works.
Due to the constraints of the parser, "value" in the prototype needs to be a number, not null. So, numeric widgets should define value as NaN and display/transmit an NaN value as the empty string. IE, if value==NaN getValue() and getDisplayedValue()? should return null. Same way as DateTextBox? is working.
The parser (str2obj) should be changed to return NaN rather that 0 for a blank value.
