Really?  At least in terms of scripting, value *does* update interactively.
I can ask for the value of an input initially and after typing things in,
and they're different.

I intended for value to update in whatever way it does when scripting is
involved.

As for breaking sites, do you mean that sites are currently relying on the
[value] selector only keying off of the written @value attribute in the
code?
