Comment (by carljm):
Yes, good point - I can see that in this case there's no elegant way for a
subclass to change this behavior.
A more general solution would be to move the HTML template into a class
attribute that a subclass could override (or one of these days finally fix
#15667).
On further thought, I think I'm more inclined towards the class attribute
than the parameter. The goal is to eventually move towards #15667, and
once we arrive in that world (where all widget markup is overrideable via
the template system) the existence of such a specific parameter for
changing one aspect of rendering a `Textarea` would seem a bit of a wart,
I think. Whereas moving the HTML template of a widget to a class attribute
is consistent with other existing widgets, and offers a flexibility that's
more similar to that of template-based widget rendering.
Is anyone opposed to moving the HTML template for `Textarea` to a class
attribute of the widget?
