Description

Here is my codesandbox where I tried some experiments.

I just wanted to see if I can make the input accept any number between 0 and 255 and block the user's input whenever they're typing something that would result in an invalid value.

As you can see in the codesandbox, I've tried 3 different ways and they all fail to behave as desired in their own unique ways.

Research direction
Examine the input mask implementation to understand how regex patterns are applied and see if there is a mismatch between the expected behavior and the actual implementation. Look at the codesandbox to reproduce the issue.
