If you're designing a login page, please don't have it complain about me not having entered in a valid e-mail or user name before I click "submit". I'm getting to it, I promise! Sometimes I just copy & paste the password before the user name.

Actually, if all entry forms could just chill a bit and let me fill in the information without distraction that would be great.

@shane_kerr on the other hand, when you press submit, the page should scroll back to the bit that is missing. Often you get a generic "complete all required fields" message, or even worst just face an unclickable button, and you have to guess what's wrong...

@nicolaromano @shane_kerr Or the paste action doesn't register as "someone typed into this field so you cant click submit until you type+erase in email or password field"
