Re: [whatwg/dom] Attributes not ready on element construction? (#522)

> They should instead interpret the absence of an attribute as triggering the default behavior.

That's true, I'll think about that, though currently I think it's cleaner to see (f.e. in the Inspector) the default values so it's easy to learn from. And it doesn't harm how anything like React/Vue/Angular works. Do you know any ways it might harm other code somewhere?

Seems like well-documented elements will probably not have a problem as long as they don't morph the HTML structure because React/Vue/Angular they track the DOM structure, but not attribute references (they only use setAttribute to update DOM).

Plus, builtin elements already do morph DOM, f.e. `<table>`.
