Re: [Bug 25766] New: Problem with constraints failure when there is no constraint.

I agree with Martin.  If the author says that 'foo' is  required, then 
doesn't  specify it.  Furthermore, the fact that the constraint is  
missing is how we detect unsupported mandatory constraints.  If the UA 
doesn't support the 'height' attribute, and the author specifies it in a 
mandatory constraint with 'require', the situation will look to the UA 
just like the one described in the bug.
