Nick Burch commented on VALIDATOR-292:
--------------------------------------
Following discussions with commons committers at the Apache Retreat, I've
re-worked the patch to follow the same design as validators such as the ISBN
validator. By default, the domain and email validators will continue to declare
localhost as invalid (as they always have done). For most people, this will be
correct. For anyone running in a development environment (where localhost is
wanted to be valid), a boolean can be passed when fetching the validator
instance to toggle this.
New patch for this pattern attached, along with unit tests.
> [PATCH] @localhost and @localhost.localdomain email addresses aren't
> correctly detected as valid
