As far as I can tell, NVDA reports the text associated with the placeholder.
But there is no actual text in the input field. Let me know if you are
seeing a different behavior.

Subject: [WebAIM] Possible Incorrect NVDA Behavior

Hi,
It seems that NVDA may not be honoring that placeholders disappear when you
type into edit boxes. Will someone please confirm by looking at this page?

Thanks.
