There is one from 2015 and I bet if I dig deeper there are older ones. The one from 2015 was answered and said the functionality is now there with custom data rules. While technically correct, giving the user the ability to do this on their own is not the same as having proper data validation in the first place for a field such as email. So based on that response I think we can assume they will not be improving this any time soon. At least it can be mostly done by custom data rules or Marks formula.
