Bug in Textfield when presented in Safari 16.3 it'll show as ` *`

When I use a

<TextField
   label="your email"
   required

in a form, on Safari 16.3 it'll show as  *:

While in latest Safari 16.5, it'll use a normal blank space:

The page has a <meta charset="utf-8"> meta tag.

So it turns out, this is an issue in old Safari + solid-start:

• this didn't happen for SSR pages, because the server already built the page entirely, including the <meta charset="utf-8"> header.
• this also didn't happen in other client dynamic sites I had built before, because the base-minimal index.html already had that <meta charset="utf-8"> header included before the js runs. • my latest app uses the latest solid-start metaframework, which only generates a minimal index.html without a meta-tagduring build-time, I can't even adjust it since there is no more template index.html.

So I have to not forget to change the content-type header as part of every CI deployment to text/html; charset=utf-8
