`[type="password"]` fallback #15

Discussion

This will temporarily change a [type="password"] input to a [type="text"] in the conditions that

the input needs a placeholder fallback
there is no value assigned to the input

This is to work around the "dots" that a [type="password"] field will show instead of characters by falling back to an input type that can present clear text.

Before (IE9)

After (IE9)
