> I believe emails only accept ascii characters
Just to clarify, Django has long supported non-ASCII domains in email
addresses, in the email validator and throughout django.core.mail.
But since every email address must end with an ASCII top level domain,
perhaps "Email widget: Always LTR" still makes sense? (I'm not an RTL
user, so don't know what the expectation would be for mixed RTL+LTR
addresses.)
(Also, RFC 6532 allows non-ASCII on both sides of the @, though neither
Django's email validator nor its SMTP email backend currently handle non-
ASCII before the @.)
