Comment (by georgestephanis):

 If the issue is the client-side validation causing problems for some
 elements, we can have the best of both worlds.  Leave the input type="url"
 to get the proper keyboard for mobile and such, but add a novalidate
 attribute to the element.

 This will turn off browser-based client side validation.
