It seems to me that you would just not use a text-field and detect a touch
on an element that looks like a text field. After each key, on your custom
keyboard, is entered you add or subtract that character to your html element
depending on if they delete or add characters.

If you need to send to a server by form submit, send the data to a hidden
text field perhaps?
