Summary Option elements support a "label" attribute which will cause the option to render with the text inside the attribute rather than the child text of the option element itself. This functionality is disabled in quirks mode, where the label attribute is ignored and the child text is always rendered. This change will always use the label attribute in both standards mode and quirks mode. Blink componentBlink>Forms>Select <https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Blink%3EForms%3ESelect> TAG reviewNone TAG review statusNot applicable Risks Interoperability and Compatibility If websites rely on this quirks mode behavior despite firefox already shipping this behavior for years, then select elements won't render with the expected text. If too many websites are broken, I will disable this change via finch and try to change the HTML spec to align with chrome. *Gecko*: Shipped/Shipping ( https://wpt.fyi/results/html/rendering/widgets/the-select-element/option-add-label-quirks.html ) *WebKit*: No signal *Web developers*: No signals *Other signals*: Ergonomics There are no other platform APIs that this change will be used in tandem with. Activation This will not be challenging for developers to take advantage of. Security There are no security risks/considerations for this feature. WebView application risks This change does not have particularly high risk to WebView. Debuggability No DevTools changes are needed for this change.

Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
