Process legacy want submission: token field element

[Copilot]

Processes legacy want submission #425 requesting a native HTML token field element (chip input) for multi-value form inputs like email addresses and tags.

Changes

Want file

• Created wants/60f4aacb952fb3beac8eaa21.md with enhanced description
• Tags: html, forms, ux
• Links to HTML Forms spec
• Maps to discussion a token field element #425

Validation script

• Extended scripts/validate-want.mjs to accept MongoDB ObjectId format (24 hex chars)
• Ensures compatibility with existing legacy wants using ObjectId identifiers

// Now accepts UUID, ObjectId, and numeric IDs
const OBJECTID_REGEX = /^[0-9a-f]{24}$/i;

function validateNumber(number) {
  if (typeof number === 'string' && OBJECTID_REGEX.test(number)) {
    return; // Valid MongoDB ObjectId (legacy)
  }
  // ... existing UUID and numeric validation
}

The want will appear at https://webwewant.fyi/wants/60f4aacb952fb3beac8eaa21/ after merge.

Not sure if this has been proposed before (I can't find anything though) but a standard, accessible HTML form similar to the Mac's token field would be helpful for addresses and item tags.
