redmonk ,
All I can say is that it works for me (type text / textarea) with utf8_unicode_ci.

i guess its a bug, try to create form using Fast Form, add an "input" type field of numeric, then check the underlying field on the database table, it does not set the collation to utf8_general_ci, unlike "text area" type where it sets it right the first time.

I wouldn't consider that as bug, it's just not implemented in that way (yet). Because most people here are not dealing with arabic numerals.

redmonk,
toms is correct.
It has not been implemented. (I wouldn't know how to)
