crazy thing is that you *can* avoid all that in react as well. at my job i wrote form validation that uses uncontrolled inputs and the native HTML form validation API — `invalid` events, setCustomValidity, etc. the crap is self-imposed!

Yes...this is why even React, an elegant abstraction, breaks down at the edge of the DOM...why couldn't React elements automatically proxy the imperative methods like .focus() and .setCustomValidity() and handle the ref stuff internally? Very mysterious.

Anyone out there writing custom form validations with modern browser APIs? Specifically looking into things like using ValidityState, the <output> element, setCustomValidity, :user-valid, etc.

Learned about "setCustomValidity" in #orclapex today. This data validation overlord is happy :-) #AUSOUG_CONNECT2018

There seem to be two distinct needs: what we have now (one at a time tooltips plus the ability to style them) and displaying the errors inline all at once.

Customizing the (plain text) message is easy through setCustomValidity().
