Description

Is it possible to add the ':' before the user types the third character? From a user friendly point of view, I think it gives a better hint of what he needs to type. Currently I'm working on a project that the main users may not know about masks and 'numbers only'. I know I can send a error message, but I believe is a simpler idea to type the ':' automatically after the second character, not the third.

Research direction
Examine the existing time mask implementation in the codebase, likely in a directive file like ui time mask.js. The goal is to modify the logic so that the colon is inserted automatically after the second character rather than the third. Review related tests to ensure the change aligns with expected behavior. Check if there is any discussion in the issue comments about maintainer preferences.
