title: Limit the allowed file size for <input type=file> in pure HTML (no JS)
body: <p>There are several topics* about setting up a max file size for a <code>input type=file</code>, but there is apparently no pure-standard HTML way to do so (nothing in the HTML spec).</p>
  
  <p>So, is there any <em>pure-HTML</em> way to set a max file size on a <code>input type="file"</code>?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a request for such feature, like a <code>maxsize="..."</code> attribute to let the browser filter out the files the user can selected, or do we have to stick to Javascript File API for years (or ever)?</p>
