Hey Hubert,

I'm not sure that default html supports using a svg image in the 
placeholder field of the input box.  I'm pretty sure that this affect is 
typically implemented via css.  Take a look 
at 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13761654/html5-image-icon-to-input-placeholder
 
to see how someone was implementing putting a magnifying glass in a text 
box.  

I did try the following, which got the html for the svg into the 
placeholder field, but as you can see, it doesn't render as html, but as 
plain text.

<$wikify name="temp" text="[img width='12' [Motovun Jack.svg]] bla bla bla" 
output="html">


<$edit-text tiddler='$:/value' field='note' placeholder=<<temp>> />
</$wikify>
