Steps to reproduce the issue

Find an input text field that has a hint.
For instance:
screen shot 2022-09-22 at 18 41 44

Expected result

I can tell this is a hint and not the actual value

Actual result

I can't tell if I see the value or the hint

System information (as much as possible)

Any Joomla 4 version

Additional comments

Using colors to differentiate hint from actual value may not be the answer.
One solution could be to add the hint to the description. But now the system can hide descriptions...

I would kill the hint too, but that is a standard HTML attribute, and we can't ignore it.

input::placeholder {font-size: .8rem;}

or
input::placeholder {font-size: .8rem;font-style:italic;}

+1 for me. Being italic, smaller and slightly whiter makes it easier to spot as a hint.
No accessibility issue either as we use standard markup.
