Proposed functionality

Create a type of data "email" in custom filed creation

Use case

I wanted to create a custom field for group email address in group-contacts - as type of text and Validation regex for Email, none of my regex was acceppted.
Make sure when custom fields for emailaddresses will be added, that only email-addresses in valid format could be inserted

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Apr 10, 2025):

We've opted not to add custom fields specified to certain data formats for the simple reason that it would introduce a myriad of new field types. While it's possible to achieve this functionality using a regex (as pointed out above), I'd argue that what you really want is some mechanism for associating a custom field with some form of canonical validator. This might be worth raising in a discussion and ultimately a new feature request.
