But when it will, again entering such characters will be a problem.

Are you saying that having to enter the email address as
[email protected] is something working? It seems worse than
having to copy and paste (or whatever) a username with special characters
(which at least you know).

Anyway, I don't have an opinion; I only tried to say that using email instead
of username doesn't seem a proper solution to the problem; the solution is
having working input methods.
