Sometimes (and maybe more often than not, e.g. webmail!) one would
want to allow a list of E-mail addresses rather than only one in an
INPUT type="email". The spec doesn't discuss this as far as I can
see. Would it be better to allow this explicitly, stating that UAs
should be able to validate a comma- or semicolon-separated list of
mail addresses and that authors who wish to limit the field to only
one may specify a pattern to limit it? Something like
pattern=".*@[^@]*" would mean the input could only be valid if the
field contained one and only one @ sign.
Thoughts? Which is in your opinion more common, type=email-single or
type=email-multiple?
