:placeholder-shown has uneven support across browsers and breaks:

Input field validations
Input field label animation/transition

In IE and Firefox

I've been thinking about this lately. The downside of not using :placeholder-shown Is that we will require more JavaScript to drive the UX features of the field. I think at this point I'm fine with adding more JavaScript because we are using JavaScript to drive some ux features already. But this wasn't always the case.

Also, my hopes were that the fields were gracefully degrading on the unsupported browsers.
