A finger twitch committed early, so I'm restating:

According to the HTML5 spec named options should be accessible from both the
HTMLSelectElement and the HTMLOptionsCollection. If there is more than one
option with the same name, all should be returned as a collection. So if you
have:

<select id="sl1"><option value="Value" name="test" /></select>

and in JS code you do:
var test = document.getElementById("sl1").test

test should be a single HTMLOptionElement.

If instead you have:

<select id="sl2"><option value="Value1" name="test" /><option value="Value2"
name="test" /></select>

test should be a collection with 2 HTMLOptionElements. 

Neither chromium nor Safari handle both cases correctly. Safari returns both
singletons and collections but only for HTMLOptionsCollection
(document.getElementById("sl1").options.test). For HTMLSelectElement it always
returns null. chromium returns a singleton even when more than one element has
the same name for both HTMLSelectElement and HTMLOptionsCollection.
