unable to delete last digit when entering a page number in PDF #796

When jumping to a specific page number in a PDF, it's not possible to delete the very last digit, which always remains 1. In this case, the PDF loaded was a ~500 page long textbook, so accessing any pages beyond 199 was nearly impossible, but even in a shorter PDF this bug can be a big headache.

I'm guessing this problem is caused by how the PDF immediately jumps to the new page whenever the page number is edited, so it couldn't jump to an empty page number. I also find this feature a little annoying – I would prefer to be able to edit the page number without applying the change until I hit enter or unselect the textbox (similar to the chrome PDF reader)

definitely annoying, but you should be able to enter any page number by ctrl-a first, then type the number.
