Huh. I was under the impression that it did full verification, as
according to RFC (2)822. Not that that's generally necessary, in fact
it's mostly just outdated crap, (the technical term I believe).

That's the problem with the filter extension. It's a black box and you never
know what it checks, or how. Often it validates poor input as is the case
with its URL validation.
Regex means you see what's happening and you have control over it.
I've been using the filter_* validators in some cases, but after inspecting
the C source code of this extension and finding multiple side effects in the
filters I used, I dropped it and went back to regex/strlen/ctype_*/etc.
