[whatwg] Why children of datalist elements are barred from constraint validation?

Hi,

I agree that a child of a datalist element should not block the form
submission. However, I'm wondering why do we care about this particular
edge case when there are a lot of situations where an element can be
invalid without any possible action from the user.

If there is no specific use cases in mind I think we should just remove
that.

Thanks,
