Comment:
This IDL doesn&apos;t parse.  These IDL members are already in HTMLInputElement and
HTMLTextAreaElement -- why do they need to be repeated here in a separate IDL
fragment?

    <thetext>Just to remind readers, the same way the URL decomposition attributes are listed again in their section.

Does it cause harm? The &lt;pre&gt; block has a class=&quot;idl extract&quot; which is distinguishable from &lt;pre class=&quot;idl&quot;&gt; so you can avoid automatically parsing it, if that&apos;s the issue.</thetext>
