Bug 40747 is about the UI, so this may as well be repurposed to be only about not accepting IDNs.  E-mail inputs should certainly accept IDNs and convert to punycode for submission -- it only makes sense.  The spec mentions this as an example but doesn't require it (since it's a UI issue):

"User agents may transform the value for display and editing (e.g. converting punycode in the value to IDN in the display and vice versa)." <http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/states-of-the-type-attribute.html#e-mail-state>
