So the distinction between the two is that using the 'capture' attribute indicates that a live capture is preferred? In that case, I suggest that the 'capture' attribute be a boolean, leaving the type-checking to the 'accept' attribute, which already serves this function. Not only would this avoid duplication, it also avoids conflicts like <input capture=microphone accept='image/*'> ~fantasai
