Android keyboard, inconsistent next key behavior based on form input type

Project Member Reported by muell...@google.com, Jul 24 2017

Issue description

Device name: Pixel

From "Settings > About Chrome"
Application version: 58.0.3029.83
Operating system: Android 7.1.2; Pixel Build/NJH47D


Steps to reproduce:
(1) Have an HTML form with input fields of type text and numeric.
(2) Focus those input fields

Expected result:
The Android keyboard shown in both cases should have a button to switch to the next input field and not to submit the form (or the form should be submitted only when on the last input field or on a submit button).


Actual result:
For numeric form input fields, the Android keyboard shows the key to switch to the next form item (it sends TAB key) https://screenshot.googleplex.com/2OZEKSLpss9, for non-numeric fields, it sends the return key instead: https://screenshot.googleplex.com/TY1yiO0tEo7
which does not seem to make a lot of sense.

Tested omnibox from https://www.google.com for text and number entry, had no issues.


Can you share which HTML form was used for this test case?

Thanks

The most simple case will be sufficient:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html><head></head><body>
  <p><input type="text"></p>
  <p><input type="number"></p>
</body></html>
