Attribute "aria-required" missing on inputText with type-ahead enabled

A small annoyance in XPages when using <xp:inputText> or another control.
With a simple definition the attribute "aria-required" is set:

<xp:inputText value="#{uidoc.FieldName}" id="fieldName1"
required="true" disableClientSideValidation="true">

<xp:this.validators>
<xp:validateRequired message="Required field!"></xp:validateRequired>
</xp:this.validators>

</xp:inputText>


When I add the type-ahead functionality the attribute magically disappears.

<xp:typeAhead mode="partial" minChars="1"
ignoreCase="true"
valueList="#{javascript:return vrniSeznamOseb();}">
</xp:typeAhead>


It more of an annoyance than a serious problem... it can be worked around.
