FWIW, it sounds sane to me to align validation as much as possible
with the UA parsing in a way that issues that aren't really problems

sounds like a good example of "this is invalid because we're sticking
to our fixed ideas"[1] rather than "this is invalid for technical
reasons like causing ambiguities in DOM parsing". So I support Sam's
approach.
Well, nothing per the parsing section causes "ambiguities in DOM parsing"
(assuming I understand what that means). So I'm not sure what you're
suggesting.
That said, HTML5 must see
<input type="checkbox" checked/>
as a checkbox input with a "checked" attribute.
It does.
