 By default the search widget is just a blank field. This is really
 unfortunate. However, HTML5 has a solution! Since the search field is
 already {{type="search"}}, we only need to add the attribute
 {{{placeholder="Search"}}} to the element.

 {{{
 <hmtl>
 …
 <form action="http://example.com/" method="get" id="searchform-1">
 <input type="search" name="s" id="s-1" placeholder="search" />
 </form>
 …
 </html>
 }}}
