  // Setting #disabled to TRUE results in user input being ignored, regardless
  // of how the element is themed or whether JavaScript is used to change the
  // control's attributes. However, it's good UI to let the user know that input
  // is not wanted for the control. HTML supports two attributes for this:
  // http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.12. If a form wants
  // to start a control off with one of these attributes for UI purposes only,
  // but still allow input to be processed if it's submitted, it can set the
  // desired attribute in #attributes directly rather than using #disabled.
  // However, developers should think carefully about the accessibility
  // implications of doing so: if the form expects input to be enterable under
  // some condition triggered by JavaScript, how would someone who has
  // JavaScript disabled trigger that condition? Instead, developers should
  // consider whether a multi-step form would be more appropriate (#disabled can
  // be changed from step to step). If one still decides to use JavaScript to
  // affect when a control is enabled, then it is best for accessibility for the
  // control to be enabled in the HTML, and disabled by JavaScript on document

  // backdrop_form_submit() must not be able to get around this. Forms that set
