There is a flag defining if the placeholder should be displayed when an input field is focused (shouldShowPlaceholderWhenFocused). I believe it is false for GTK, and the placeholder should be hidden if the input field is focused. With that assumption:

On every one of those tests, the input field should be focused, and the placeholder should not be displayed. Typing text should not show the placeholder. Emptying the input field and removing the focus should show the placeholder.

>From the test results you linked I think it is all good. If you confirm manually, you can just rebaseline those 4 results.


On a completely unrelated: what is the native behavior of GTK for placeholder? Does it also hide on focus? If not we could unify and simplify the code.
