Use case
It would be great to be able to disable the virtual keyboard for certain TextFields.
Proposal
Introduce
TextInputType.nonethat can be specified as the keyboard type for TextField. Flutter should not open the virtual keyboard when such text field gains focus.In order to avoid the platform keyboard popping up, Flutter for Web needs to set the input element's
inputmodeattribute tonone. This matches well with theTextInputTypeenum that is already used to define the attribute.Similarly, the rest of the platforms need to respect
TextInputType.nonewhen passed in the text input configuration.Additional notes
This would lay the foundations for custom in-app virtual keyboards: #68988 and #76072.
