In #2917594: Add support for HTML5 placeholder in views exposed filters → , placeholder text support was added for StringFilter and NumericFilter. This functionality would also be very useful for when a core search filter is exposed in views.
The same code that was used in that earlier issue for StringFilter could easily be extrapolated for the Search Filter.

Used to track the progress of issues reviewed by the Drupal Needs Review Queue Initiative.
Not all content is available!
It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
This issue is being reviewed by the kind folks in Slack, #needs-review-queue-initiative. We are working to keep the size of Needs Review queue [2700+ issues] to around 400 (1 month or less), following Review a patch or merge request → as a guide.
By adding a new schema option we will need an upgrade hook for existing sites.
That update hook will also need tests.
Thanks!
