I think the spec is already clear on this point, and what you're asking for is
actually a bug report / feature request for the W3C's suite of validator tools.

It's for the whole suite, not just the HTML validator, because of this:

foo.html:
<link rel=stylesheet href=foo.css>
<h1 hidden>hi</h1>

foo.css:
h1 {
  display: block !important;
}

So, given that (1) doesn't really apply to the spec and (2) is (or should be)
captured by bug 18574, I'm restoring the original resolution of this bug.
