Standardization is sometimes influenced by what a single vendor implemented proactively, but usually the process works differently=E2=80=94note, for example, the W3C standardization process: https://www.w3.org/2019/Process-20190301/. I have no recent information on `x-autocompletetype` and any standardization efforts around it, however you get this validator message because it=E2=80=99s not = yet part of the HTML standard, and as it has not been done in a way that would be otherwise compliant. The validator seems to respond correctly. --=20 Jens Oliver Meiert https://meiert.com/en/
