Clicking Upload before choosing a file breaks the file type restriction on the managed file element [#2047151]

The setup: you have a file field which allows only .txt files.

Steps to reproduce: Click "Upload" before you choose a file, then click choose a file, and choose a .jpg file. Nothing happens. There should be an error message that comes up explaining that a .jpg file is not valid for this field.

I tested this in 7.x, but needs verification that this is still a bug in 8.x.

Can't reproduce this on 8.x - there is a different error (after you 'unhide' the upload button because it's hidden by default), but that will be fixed by #2587755: AJAX error when using progress bar on file field widget

This is a special case of #1074214: Wrong file extension JS error is hidden after an upload has already been attempted (e.g., after adding then removing a file) and the patch there seems to fix it.
