That doesn't seem like a horrible problem to me. Most people don't set color on inputs, and when they do, it's at least guaranteed that the color is *usable* for placeholder, even if it's not ideal. They can just set color on the placeholder directly if they care, though. (My windows theme is green-on-black, so I am very aware when people *do* style their inputs. Setting color:black without a background-color:white is distressingly common, but overall most inputs are unstyled in my experience.) I don't personally feel this is important enough of an issue to justify specificity trickery. ~TJ
