The description for the options field for select elements is a bit confusing.

It says:

... Only alphanumeric characters and underscores are allowed as a key...

This indicates that you cannot add an email address as a key due to punctuation, however a valid use of these fields is to use the key as the email address to send the submission to.

Thanks, a better message here is definitely warranted. Really you can use whatever you want (even spaces or quotes or whatever). Perhaps it should just be "recommended" that you use alphanumeric characters(?)

I've changed this string to:

Use of only alphanumeric characters and underscores is recommended in keys.
