### Current Behavior

Hello,

I'm using MaskedBehavior to input a license plate, the mask is XX-XX-XX

When I put, for example, AA-44-AA, the keyboard changes to text when I'm putting numbers.

Attached I include a video demonstrating

### Expected Behavior

Function how entry when there is no mask

### Steps To Reproduce

1. Put entry with this XAML

```





```
2. Start writing A then A then 1
3. The keyboard automatically changes the type

Research direction

Start with the MaskedBehavior entry point and reproduce the XAML example from the issue on Android, using the linked reproduction project if needed. Observe the keyboard after entering AA1 and compare it with an unmasked Entry. Done means applying the XX-XX-XX mask no longer causes the keyboard to switch type while entering numbers.
