Comment (by afercia):

 Theoretically, `required` should be preferred over `aria-required`,
 because ARIA shouldn't be used when there's some native, equivalent, HTML
 feature. However the client-side validation triggered by `required` is
 largely inconsistent across browsers. This should be carefully evaluated.
