No, we don't specify the type.

<@s.textfield theme="forces"
name="gst"
value=35
label="GST"
size=6
id="gst"
/>
{code}
I've taken a look at Freemarker documentation, but didn't find anything to help
sort this out (It's possible that Freemarker is converting all literal numbers
to BigDecimal, which would be an unfortunate combination with WW-3171, but
understandable). Anyway, we didn't really need our attributes to be treated as
any sort of number, so quoting them is working fine.

>
> Commit 229afea64e77c2dba9eec62b2c339e9fc92c9ec7 caused all inputs
> recognisable as numbers to be formatted with at least one decimal place. This
> includes all integers, which is frequently undesirable, particularly if they
> were meant to be, eg:
> - identifiers, not for arithmetic;
> - strictly validated against an XML schema that does not allow for
> floating-point numbers;
> - subject to length limitations;
> - etc
> This apparently occurs because all inputs that look like numbers, regardless
> of format, are of type {{BigDecimal}} by the time they reach the
> {{StringConverter}}.
> For our applications, this is a blocker; is it working differently for
> others? We don't have any special handling of input types.
