A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The MaskFormatter class requires a stringent mask. I would
like to specify the number of mask characters that must
match to make the value valid. For example, if I have a
zip code field, I would like to use a format of:
"#####-####" with a numMatch of 5 which implies that only
the first 5 characters are required. As another example you
can specify a phone number as "(###)###-#### x####" with
a numMatch set to 10 so that only the first 10 mask
characters must match.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
