           Summary: International domain name (IDN) emails silently fail
                    input type="email" validation
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://pukupi.com/post/2070/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: webkit.org at boblet.net


It seems that type="email" content is not correctly converted to punycode, so a user using a doublebyte name is unable to submit the form. Worse, there is no UI for this error, so the user has no idea why the form hasn’t submitted. It appears as if the submit button isn’t connected to anything.
