I realize this thread has taken on a life of its own, but please note
that the bug report with which I started this thread does not claim
that '%' is or should be invalid in an e-mail address.

Folks,

I think I could track the bug. Sorry for misunderstanding the original post. I should have read the report with more care.

What it does report is the fact that in certain contexts, if one gives an otherwise invalid e-mail address that happens to also contain a '%' (for example, user%name.example.com which is invalid because it doesn't contain '@'), the attempt to report the invalid address back to the user gives a 'We're sorry, we hit a bug!' error.


The problem is that addError() function has deprecated insertion function. It was replaced by i18n._(), I believe.
