>    - input elements that are required

According to this definition, radio1 in the following example is not matched to
":required" though radio1 is invalid.  I think it's inconsistent and we had
better add an exceptional rule for radio button groups.

<form>
<input type=radio name=group1 id=radio1>
<input type=radio name=group1 required>
</form>
