Why do we have this complex rule for validating urls
Wouldn't it be much easier to use the native php validation filters

FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL : dotless domain names are not supported (e.g. dings@localhost).
FILTER_VALIDATE_URL : only find ASCII URLs to be valid.
I'm not absolutely sure if it was a Joomla discussion but as far as I remember that was the reason why FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL was refused in the past.
