Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 > You get +100 psychic points if you can guess what those two false values
 represent, without looking at the definition.

 That could be the case with many functions. I think the true/false for
 echo/return works here.

 I do think {{{placeholder}}} is a useful addition for UI purposes, but see
 how it could be considered fluff in a function that could provide values
 for more than {{{type="text"}}}.

 With the default values of the function though, only this is required:

 {{{<input type="text" <?php valued( $possible_num ); ?>>}}}

 I don't have any reasons to leave out a blank {{{value=""}}}, so it may be
 that the {{{if}}} statement is unnecessary. Of course once you take that
 out, it appears I may be overreaching a bit.
