    <thetext>Select elements should be able to accept the required attribute: they are interactive, submittable and resettable. That means they have a value which can be changed by the user. If there is no selected option, the select element value is the empty string so it should be easy to check if the element is suffering from being missing.</thetext>

Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: This is a feature request. To avoid getting too far ahead of implementations, we need to wait until browsers have implemented what we have today before adding more.
