> IMHO TextInput should paint the prompt even if the component is focused and if the input text is blank. I've seen other GUI toolkits behave like this. I find it very irritating that the prompt goes away when I set the caret into it. I expect it do go away only as soon as I start typing.
> Also note that with the _current_ behavior you would never see the prompt if the input component is the only focusable component in a dialog.
