Thanks for the update Kara, and appreciate the detailed information.
A workaround that works well (as suggested Stephen Chapman in the forum) is to create a Text Formula referencing the email field, and making that the display field. However with over 50 apps affected for me, this is a tedious process which I’d rather not have to do if possible.

Hi @Craig_Anderson , @StephenChapman & @CarlHolmes
A quick update on this issue:
Here is how a connected email address, in a display field, looks ‘under the hood’ in Firefox:
All html is stripped out. The same is true for when the connected field might be a display field with Rich Text:
(builder view:
In Chrome, we are seeing full html - same records:
The html in Chrome is blocking our (Knack) code from removing options.
There was an update to Chrome on Thursday, April 10, but we have a few other reports of similar issues of ‘unexplained’ issues in Chrome, which maybe? caused this, although it seems similar an issue reported last November, in which dropdown fields suddenly grew very long, but then was no longer seen.
Immediately, we’re working on the fix to allow deselecting a choice as expected, in Chrome, as the first step, then meeting internally this week to discuss the best way to handle what browsers are doing/not doing automatically.
