Comment(by jane):

 When Mark and I first talked about this, it was re the Title field on the
 post editor, which uses placeholder text instead of a visual label for
 visual design reasons, though it has a "label" for screen readers. I need
 to read up on the accessibility issues, but if accessibility can be worked
 out, I think this approach has a lot of potential and would be worth doing
 some prototype screens and testing with users. I'm thinking specifically
 of media uploader or the Settings section.
