I imagine all that *required *or *required="true" *does is tell the 
auto-generated JavaScript to make sure that field is not empty. It's highly 
likely the required attribute is stripped by CFML thus negating any 
benefits from HTML5. If you want HTML5 validation it's probably best to use 
a regular input element.
