I also consider this idea a long-term solution since I can't see a way to solve this in all cases. Perhaps we could provide a library to check e-mail addresses and URIs, throwing a warning if necessary and desired (--> kdeadmin), but implementing this would be the third party developers' choice.

Even if there was (is?) a layer every URI or address is passed through (dunno, perhaps for syntactical tests), producing messages in general would be a bad idea (consider batch processing etc.).
