In the introductory example, there is quantity and price text boxes, what's a bit odd is that that the price has up and down arrows to increase the value whereas the quantity does not. It appears that "number" has the extra control where "integer" does not. I would think that this would be the opposite and might even go as far as to say it should be an optional attribute of the control(s).
