Hi, I am working on placeholder implementation on Gecko and I am face of the placeholder style customization. Indeed, a website can style the input/textearea element which can make default placeholder style inappropriate. The trivial idea is to create a CSS pseudo-element to style the placeholder. I am going to implement that [1] as Webkit did [2]. But the properties that will apply to the pseudo-element should be limited. Probably only those related to the font. At the moment, it looks like there is no specification about the style customization of the placeholder. Maybe it would be appropriate to specify one ?
