Comment (by melinath):
This is not backwards-incompatible in any way that I can see. As was
previously mentioned, old browsers will interpret these HTML5 types as
text fields. As for localization - the HTML inputs will no longer accept
values that use THOUSANDS_SEPARATOR on the client side. As far as I know,
that's not a backwards-compatibility issue; users will get a clear error
message and be able to fix the issue without submitting the form. And on
the python side, if THOUSANDS-separated text *does* get through (for
example from an old browser) it will still be handled correctly.
Also this doesn't seem mutually exclusive with #15667, but it does seem
more likely to be finished soon.
