Steps to reproduce:
1. Place on form two controls: TEditMask and TcxEditMask;
2. Enter standard mask "LLLLL";
3. Run app and test to enter some text:
Results:
EditMask -- it's OK. We can enter any alphabetic symbols.
TcxEditMask -- ERROR. We can enter ONLY english symbols, but can't enter non latin (russian, etc).
cxMaskEdit - The editor does not accept non-Latin characters if the Properties.MaskKind property is set to emkStandard and the mask contains the 'L' character
