there is no numerical keyboard with a dot: a numerical keyboard is set for a 
numerical value. a numerical value doesn't have dots. it has numerics.
it's like asking for an email keyboard with a space key.

two options:
- split input in two inputs you merge with a dot on submit
- preventDefault + make your own numerical "keyboard"

about option 2: don't forget to deal with non-touchscreen devices
