[RFE] Output CSS classes for custom types

>
> Hello!
>
> I used to have some CSS styles attached to 'type-classes' (eg.
> "xforms-type-integer") in order to put a different style to controls
> depending of their types:
>
> For example, align an input bound to an integer node:
> .xforms-input input[type="text"].xforms-type-integer { text-align: right; }
>
> But now I have to change all binding definitions to use a custom type for
> integer types, so I'm going to lost that CSS classes and I will not be able
> to put a different style to that controls.
