 Using "achecker.ca" to test accessibility of a WordPress site, I got the
 following warning regarding the core Search widget:

 Check 57: input element, type of "text", missing an associated label.
 Repair: Add a label element that surrounds the control's label. Set the
 for attribute on the label element to the same value as the id attribute
 of the control. And/or add a title attribute to the input element. And/or
 create a label element that contains the input element.

 The HTML it flagged was:

 <input type="text" name="s" class="form-control" placeholder="Search">

 Could we please add a title attribute as suggested by the testing tool?
