--- Comment #10 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> ---
Update:

Firefox and Chrome both have basically the same implementation for type=color,
for which placeholder="" makes no sense. WebKit and IE (10) still don't seem to
support it.

Chrome implements all the date-related ones except type=datetime, and for none
of them would a placeholder work. iOS Safari does some stuff with some of the
widgets, and the placeholders could be used given how they do it.

Firefox, IE, and WebKit still don't seem to support the date-related ones on
desktop. Firefox Android doesn't either.

They all do type=number and show a placeholder, as the spec allows.

Continuing to punt given the current situation.
