Enable to use the default select list values when using a Japanese Keyboard.
*Entering numbers for example “1234” as the whole width version(全角) into numeric or decimal fields and hitting the spacebar would enter into the field as “12341234...”. Try entering a number by letting that number selection menu open, and press space bar and arrow keys. Using numpad, numpad area on the regular keyboard or numbers on the top of the keyboard all same behavior.
Using numbers on the top row on the keyboard:
1 Enter 1234 as the whole width version(全角)
2 hit space bar: empty
3 hit space bar again then duplicate 1234. like 12341234 *it seems whenever spacebar hit half-width character, then enters.
Another behavior
Step:
1 Enter 1234 as the whole width version(全角)
2 hit space bar: empty
3 enter: empty
Using numpad
Step:
1 Enter 1234 as the whole width version(全角), but it seems as half-width.
2 hit enter: duplicate numbers.

This item is key to support in Japan market.
We were already asked by several customer to support this.
It's not user friendly since user has to identify the type of field in each field and switch the input mode. -

Japanese users use Japanese IME Full-Width mode, when they type the numbers in numeric/decimal and click enter or return key, the value keeps adding. Click the space bar, the select list shows up, but hitting a space bar to enter the correct value, it does not work as expected.
They have to switch input-type each time it depends on the field type on WebClient. That is very annoying extra steps for them. Apparently all Japanese users are affected this behaviors.
