Comment:
AFAIK, the compatibility issues are for CSS and JS:
* `input[type="text"]` CSS selector will suddenly not apply any more for
the new types (url, email, number).
* If you access an input in Javascript based on the type property, e.g.
{{{if (form.elements[0].type=='text') { ... } }}}, your script might be
broken.
My personal view is that these incompatibilities are not so serious
(mainly visual for CSS and in JS, it is not so frequent to test on input
types), but you need to convince other core developers, too.
