Details

(Whiteboard: [2.0-FL-bug-bash] [fxa4fxos2.0] ) 

STR:
1. Settings > Firefox Accounts
2. Click "Create account or sign in" button
3. Enter an email like "peter@localhost"

Actual results:
It let's me. Technically a valid email address (per the email address spec), but we should probably add additional rules instead of leaning too much on <input type="email"> validation. We probably want to check for at least a "." in the domain part.

Peter, I do not believe that it is a good use of engineering time to have every project that uses email separately code email validation routines. Would you consider moving this bug to the team that handles input email, or closing it wontfix?
