Details
In account hub, start to add an account for "toby" / "toby@tooby.com" and choose "Manual Config"
change hostname to "mail.tooby.com" so form validation passes
change protocol to "EWS"
type "h" in the "Exchange Endpoint URL" field
change protocol to "IMAP"
Result: "Continue" button is not enabled even though all form fields are valid for IMAP
Expected Result: Continue button is enabled

Marking this as WONTFIX, as the reason this issue is appearing is because the exchange url input is a "url" type input, and so if you type something that isn't a URL, even if it becomes hidden and not required (like when switching to and IMAP form), the form is still invalid because the exchange url input violates it's constraints, and still exists within the form. The way around this is to have separate forms for EWS/GRAPH and IMAP/POP3, which is the plan for the new manual config.
A workaround for this is to just delete whatever you have inputted into the exchange url input before going back to and IMAP/POP3 form.
