Click the location button, notice the disabled form is submitted (successful)

Background
--------

The `disabled` attribute on form controls is described here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.12.1
For reference here is a snippet of the contents:

17.12.1 Disabled controls
Disabled controls do not receive focus.
Disabled controls are skipped in tabbing navigation.
Disabled controls cannot be successful. ## violation

Successful is defined here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#successful-controls
For reference here is a snipped of the contents:

A successful control is "valid" for submission. Every successful control has
its control name paired with its current value as part of the submitted form
data set. A successful control must be defined within a FORM element and must
have a control name.

Bug
------

Currently, in webkit, a disabled <option> will still be submitted on the form.
Firefox behaves properly.
