I think there is a seemingly valid use case for this. HTML5 allows fieldsets to be disabled:

"The disabled attribute, when specified, causes all the form control descendants of the fieldset element, excluding those that are descendants of the fieldset element's first legend element child, if any, to be disabled."

So if you had something like this:

data:text/html,<!doctype html>
<form action=about:blank>
<fieldset disabled style=display:none>
<input required name=foo>
</fieldset>
<button type=submit>Submit</button>
</form>

It should not throw the error, because the required input should be disabled. But it does.
