Bug 1776706 Comment 0 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

The current implementation for chat accounts (IMPP) is a. input field with the type URL.

This validation is too strict and is confusing. See [Thunderbird Developers Matrix chat](https://matrix.to/#/!fubIsJzeAcCcjYTQvm:mozilla.org/$Sg-cIuM5O955z7X3lti2FPglnepZqpLzUnq2DKhB7y0?via=kewis.ch&via=mozilla.org&via=matrix.org)

The vCard spec demands an URI. See [IMPP](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6350#section-6.4.3).


I'm unsure how to move forward from here but my ideas are:

+ Using an input field with type text (to support legacy chat protocols)
+ Providing a suggestion list (datalist) for popular chat protocols
  * matrix:u/
  * irc:
  * xmpp:
