http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=11137

           Summary: Multiple-email inputs should require no space
                    characters between values
           Product: HTML WG
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML5 spec (editor: Ian Hickson)
        AssignedTo: ian@hixie.ch

Anne points out on the whatwg list that if the user inputs "foo@bar.example"
and "baz@quuz.example" in a multiple-email input, it seems like authors can't
rely on what whitespace will be present -- browsers might return
"foo@bar.example, baz@quuz.example" or "foo@bar.example,baz@quuz.example" or
even " \t\t\r foo@bar.example,baz@quuz.example\f".  To simplify processing, the
spec should require that there be no whitespace in between the addresses in the
list.
