"If the field element is a select element, then for each option element in the select element whose selectedness is true, append an entry to the form data set with the name as the name, the value of the option element as the value, and type as the type." - this also needs to account for the possibility that an option is both selected and disabled. It seems that WebKit and Gecko don't submit the element in this case.
