How do I style the HTML5 form validation error messages with CSS?

Currently, there is no way to style those little validation tooltips. The only other option, which is what I have chosen to do, is to disable the browser validation all together for now and rely on my own client-side validation scripts.

According to this article:

“The simplest way to opt out is to add the novalidate attribute to your <form>. You can also set formnovalidate on your submit controls.”
