specify unique behavior for label attribute on option in datalist #568

Open scottaohara opened 1 week ago

scottaohara commented 1 week ago

within a select element, if an option has a label attribute and child content, the label attribute value renders and the child content does not.

but within a datalist, if an option has both a label attribute and child content, both will render.

browsers expose this differently - where chromium exposes both pieces of information, firefox renders both but only exposes one, and safari only renders and exposes one of the two.

this needs cleanup

We could bring up in meeting to try to find someone who wants to champion recommending a way forward.
