Sign in page username/email capitalisation
The input type should be email (even though its possible to sign in with a username) as it would set the keyboard to one compatible with entering email addresses.
The required field should not be present as the browser would prevent entry of usernames etc.
I'm not familiar with gitlab's code structure, if anyone would like to point me to the relevant file(s) i'd be able to make a merge request.
I hope i've put this in the right place.
