New feature details:

I am working on a project where i need to create an input with a placeholder, i.e.
<input type="text" placeholder="X"></input>
However, as far as the internet has told me, there is no way to do this. It would be nice if an argument could be added to the createInput(). Then the syntax could look like:
createInput([value], [placeholder], [type]).

Is placeholder a custom attribute or are you trying to do this:

<input type="text" value="placeholder">

Is adding the option of placeholder to the parameters of the createInput method something that needs to be done? Would be happy to add the necessary code/example if needed.
