appearance on help, label, hint

Erik and Alex show using a custom appearance on label and hint to show 
the label inside the form control, as in HTML5 input:

I think Mark Birbeck used to do this with appearance="compact" or 
"minimal".

We had an extension in Chiba and now there's an implementation in 
XSLTForms where appearance="minimal" on help turns the label into a 
hyperlink which shows the help.  This works especially well when 
integrated with host language @src or @href on help..
