This only seems to occur in quirks mode, not in standards mode. But neither
Opera, Safari or IE8 have the same behaviour. Additionally, the site
reported in the bug you mentioned no longer suffers from the bug. Therefore,
it doesn't appear to be necessary that we should require that behaviour.
Ah, it does indeed only happen in quirks mode (ugh, i hate it when
quirks mode things spread into code that I work on ;) ). If no other
browser is doing it in standards mode either I'm more than happy to not
have it in the spec.
The spec is including quirks-mode requirements; do other browsers do it in
quirks mode?
As I already said above, "neither Opera, Safari or IE8 have the same
behaviour." I tested both quirks and standards mode.
