Section: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#attr-input-required Comment: Why multiple is left out of URL/Telephone? Text/Search do not need multiple but URL and Telephone can really use the multiple attribute. Posted from: 123.49.21.247
<input type='text'> could use it too for keywords list for example.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Partially Accepted Change Description: none yet Rationale: This may be a good idea, but before adding this feature we should wait to see how well type=email/multiple works. If it works well, then we should consider adding it elsewhere. If it confuses people, or if implementations end up too buggy, etc, then we should abandon the idea.

<input type=email multiple> has not been a roaring success, UI wise. I'm punting on this until it's more solidly implemented with prettier and more functional UIs.
Given the continued lack of success with type=email multiple, I'm punting on this. If an implementor decides they want to take a crack at it, please don't hesitate to reopen this bug or file a new one.
