Provide an easy way for a user to clear a field

[mtbayley]

It would be nice to have the ability to clear a field with the 'X' within a field. Autocomplete already has this.

Could this be extended to TextEdit, NumericEdit, DateEdit, etc?

The Autocomplete text field is based on an input with type="search", as shown in the image below.

That means the clear button is handled natively by the browser. You can do the same on our regular TextEdit by defining the Role parameter, but for the Numeric and Date fields, I don't see it happening.

If you really want that feature, you can make it by placing them inside of an Addon and then having a clear button to reset the value.

Role="TextRole.Search" was what I needed. Thanks!
