As W3Schools says, the accept attribute is not a validation mean. In fact, input of type file will accept any kind of file. File-type filtering is done by the FileDialog of the OS. The only purpose of the accept attribute is to inform the Browser what file-type the OS FileDialog should filter. So, the final behavior depends on the system/platform you're in.
