Comment (by shooper):

 Two thoughts:

 1. Great idea, however not sure if it belongs in core. Sanitizing URLs and
 e-mail addresses makes sense as both of those types of data are stored as
 part of the default core data (email in _users and URLs in the user_url
 usermeta).  Telephone numbers would be a custom field.

 2. If this were to be added to core, my second thought would be how does
 it handle telephone extensions, like:

 +1-613-555-1212 x 200
