 Hi @kkmuffme,

 Thanks for raising the ticket. I think `checked='checked'` would work as
 expected because HTML treats any value for a boolean attribute (including
 checked="checked", checked="true", or even checked="randomText") as
 equivalent to the presence of the attribute.

 But considering best practices in mind, we can use (just) `checked` there.
