Yes, that's one option; another is to define a HTML5EmailField (or a better name) that uses the simpler validation, and warn that EmailField is going to turn into an alias of that -- so that each EmailField in the project is handled separately. Also, I'm not sure it's possible to have the warning produced by a check; but if it is, that would be preferable. Shai.
