The numbers don't change, but the user can type superscript numbers if he
knows how to (e.g., via a Character Map or some other utility).

They aren't.
The real question, as so often, is "why?" - oh, and "what does the question
really mean?" Is this about actually filling out a form (any form), i.e.
browser usage question? Or is it about creating a form with a textarea with
some magic properties with superscripts? In the latter case, what is the
point?
