EmailValidator should not accept a hyphen as first caracter.
Note: Component set to "Utilities" but really I believe a "Validator" Component should be available.

Thanks to you Felix, I now know that EmailField is deliberately broken and untrustable.
However, this needs to be properly documented, and inaccuracies in the documentation must be fixed.

Thanks for this ticket, however we discussed a similar case in #25452 and the consensus on the mailing list was to simplify the validation, not make it more comprehensive.
