Comment (by oglekler):

 This error message looks obsolete and needs to be avoided as mush as
 possible for not to spoil a good impression upon users. Let's make JS
 validation or remove "novalidate" attribute. Both solutions look not very
 complicated. If there are some concerns from the accessibility
 perspective, it's better to ask accessibility team how it can be done
 better. The third possibility is a hook to get developers an opportunity
 to decide for themselves, but from my perspective this is unnecessary
 complication to many developers when this can be solved in the root.
