This corresponds to what
<http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/semantics.html#attr-style-type>
says, except that "text/style" should be flagged as an error, as it is
not a valid MIME type.
A different fault in the validator is that the element passes if you
specify e.g. type="text/plain". In that case, the value is a valid MIME
type but it fails to satisfy the requirement ("must") of designating a
styling language.
