I think adding the `required` attribute but ignoring the other possible html form validations (like `min` and `max` [1] for <input> that are used by the forms.IntegerField) seems a bit half-hearted.
My opinion is that having the required attribute is pretty cool, but should come with all other possible validations baked in then. django-floppyforms already includes those validations already in the HTML output of forms and it turns out to be quite useful in many situations. Even if you turn of the browser validation by adding the novalidate attribute to the <form> tag, it's good to have this meta data in the HTML representation, e.g. for styling.
