| Summary | @ sign not allowed in issues, produces an email value instead |
|---|---|
| Description |
The following characters are not allowed in an issue! literal: []{}()"/@ Of these, all but the last have delimiter quality. The @ sign is (effectively) not allowed since it produces an email! value. Is this intentional? And why is the : sign allowed when its occurrence could produce an url! value, just as well? |
| Example code |
>> type? #a:b == issue! >> type? #a@b == email! |

# is not a valid scheme character, so #a:b could not be a url!. However, #a@b being an email! does seem to violate the principle of least surprise. However, R2 has the same behavior.
We should decide if this should remain compatible with R2, or whether bug#666 applies. |
