Dynamic placeholder text in 'Plain text' field type
When editing the field, I have tried setting the 'Placeholder Text' as {title}, but this does not work - it displays "{title}"!


Yeah, those placeholder text fields aren't dynamically parsed as Twig templates like others (Entry URL Format, etc.).


  I don't want to create a new custom type of field as it seems a little heavy handed for this use case.


Unfortunately that's all that is coming to mind for me for this use-case.
