.valis documented to returnnullwhen no option is selected, and while a case could be made for moving closer to HTML5-specified behavior, I don't find it compelling enough to break our API. I have submitted a pull request to make its behavior even more clear: https://github.com/jquery/api.jquery.com/pull/406Please use
