If you prefer to have a different keyboard as your default but are happy to use Hacker's Keyboard for MobilesheetsPro you can use Quick Keyboard Switch widget to open the default keyboard settings and quickly change the default keyboard. This works with or without Bluetooth active.
I have placed the widget on my home screen next to the MobilesheetsPro app launch icon so it's easy to find. Seems to work well so far.

Yes - I haven't spent a lot of time figuring out where it works and doesn't work yet. The search field happened to be the first one I tested the Hacker's Keyboard in so it is the one I noticed right away when it didn't catch my fat finger errors. It would be nice to see that field get autocorrect capabilities, but I'm not sure if it did with the stock keyboards either.

There is a field I have to specify for every text field called "inputType". One of the things you can pass to this is "textAutoCorrect". Apparently this enables the auto-correction. I don't think I would want that enabled on every field, and I'm not sure every user would want that active. Making that dynamic (i.e. adding a setting), would be quite tedious, so I wouldn't want to do that unless there was a huge demand. If there are some fields where everyone thinks it makes sense to support auto-correct, I am open to making the change.

I cannot envision using autocapitalisation/autocorrect on any of the MSPro inputs, except for notes.

Funny, I was thinking the opposite of that. For song titles and search fields, you are generally typing real words. But notes (annotations) may frequently be abbreviations that you don't want autocorrect to catch. The "authors" field may be best without autocorrect because names aren't always common.

It works ok for me. Maybe just press the Fn key to toggle back to the alpha keyboard.

Marcello,
Please check to see if you have "Show Number Keyboard First" enabled under Settings->Other Settings.
