Placeholder often is used as an alternative to a label. It's intended to
provide a more visually compact presentation. Sometimes, such controls have a
button next to them further indicating the function.
Consider the placeholder and/or placeholder-like display at the following
sites:
http://www.apple.com/
https://us.etrade.com/
http://www.reddit.com/
http://digg.com/news
I don't think any of these would benefit from a visible label.
I would suggest instead a requirement that placeholder should be exposed to
assistive technologies as a label if there is no actual programatically
associated label.
