+1 on the kudos as well as a hint on where those of us new to the standards relating to the email input type can find details.

This is a great step.

Is there a document that sets out the context for this spec and provides the full details ? It would be useful for outreach.

That is indeed good news.

Are there other constraints to the email input type?  Does it allow unicode on the other side of the ‘@‘?   Does it include any validation?   And field length constraints?
