 Text inputs for email addresses were replaced with email inputs in [20168]
 but reverted in [20196] due to poor client-side validation by Chrome 17
 and Firefox 10, however we've had input type="email" on the registration
 form since [18763].

 We should:
  1. Test the current state of client-side validation.
  2. Either introduce email inputs in the admin area or revert [18763]
 depending on the results of point 1.

 See http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/17863#comment:25 for the email
 input validation issue.
