[QLineEdit] Methods text() and displayText() doesn't return the same value when inputMask is set.

I one uses the methods text() and displayText() on a QLineEdit, the documentation states the it should return the same value. When a inputMask("HHHH;0") is set, the values are no longer the same.

• How to reproduce:
  1. Build and compile the code.
  2. Start the application

• Expected result:
  Both labels should contain the same string "0100"
• Actual result:
  One label sais "0100" and the other "1"
