MdInput Form Validation Color

[LilSebastian5000]

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

This may be a feature request, rather than a bug. But, I think an <md-input-container> should underline an empty, required field in red on initialization.

What is the expected behavior?

An empty, required form input should be underlined in red, regardless of whether or not a user attempts to type in the field.

What is the current behavior?

When using an <md-input-container>, an empty required field does not underline in red, unless the user focuses into the field, and then unfocuses.

What are the steps to reproduce?

1. Click into the input
2. Click out of the input

@willshowell Ohh gotcha. Thanks for letting me know! A bit of a bummer that isn't a part of the material design spec, but I suppose I can perform some custom validation css.
