Greg Brown updated PIVOT-479:
-----------------------------

        Fix Version/s: 1.5
    Affects Version/s: 1.4
                           (was: 1.5.1)

I think this is valid. Hiding the prompt is a usability issue. I will check out 
the patch.

> 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.
