title: TextInputLayout and AutoCompleteTextView
body: <p>I'm using <a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/TextInputLayout.html" rel="noreferrer"><code>TextInputLayout</code></a> in my Android app to achieve that neat floating label effect for my input fields. I know that I should be using the <a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/TextInputEditText.html" rel="noreferrer"><code>TextInputEditText</code></a> as well to allow hints to be displayed when in landscape mode and the input are fills the entire screen.</p>
  
  <p>However, in some of my input fields I have got autocompletion going on using <a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/AutoCompleteTextView.html" rel="noreferrer"><code>AutoCompleteTextView</code></a> (which IMO has a really inconsistent name to it – “TextView” instead of “EditText” – but that's another story) and that obviously inherits directly from <code>EditText</code>. Thus it doesn't have the same functionality as <code>TextInputEditText</code> brings.</p>
  
  <p>So I'm wondering if there's a way to achieve the same hint-in-landscape functionality (without making my own <code>TextInputAutoCompleteTextView</code> implementation, that is) and to also avoid the lint warnings that are produced. Am I missing something here? I suppose I get that they didn't make custom versions of all direct and indirect subclasses of <code>EditText</code> for this specific thing, so am I expected to make my own? </p>
