--- Comment #17 from Bryan Davis <bda...@wikimedia.org> ---
From comment in includes/Html.php:

  // Bug 23769: Blacklist all form validation attributes for now.  Current
  // (June 2010) WebKit has no UI, so the form just refuses to submit
  // without telling the user why, which is much worse than failing
  // server-side validation.  Opera is the only other implementation at
  // this time, and has ugly UI, so just kill the feature entirely until
  // we have at least one good implementation.


Surely it's time to revisit this decision 4 years later. I was quite surprised
when creating a new FormSpecialPage to find that required fields weren't marked
as required in the generated html.
