Some values are missing from the mapping, for example dues$member-dues.

Regressed with #6707.

Before #6707:

• single binding for fr|number
• the binding, unlike most, still used the "view" representation for PDF templates

After #6707:

• introduced a new binding for fr|number[fr|static-readonly = true]
• now uses general rule for annotating with static-readonly, which disables the "view" appearance for PDF templates

See also #3800 for the original support of fr:number in PDF templates.

There are several distinct outputs:

• new/edit: use regular interactive controls HTML markup
• view/automatic PDF: use simplified "view", "field", non-interactive control markup
• PDF template: use the regular interactive control
  • because this gives us access to itemsets, in particular
  • PDF template production must not use the XHTML output #1573
  • but there are exceptions where this can't work, as this current issues shows

Options:

• controls.xsl special-cases fr:number, etc.
• add another annotation instead of fr:static-readonly, maybe fr:pdf-template
  • then individual XBL bindings could choose to bind to one or the other or none
