I am able to reproduce this issue. But it is not 100% reproducible.
See Attachment 9122503 [details] and Attachment 9122504 [details] for the difference between the good case and issue one.

The <input> fields listens to focus, blur and keydown. On the other hand, IIRC, we only dispatch input event on each <input> element at filling each one's value. So, Netflix seems that they don't assume that those <input> elements are not filled without focus. In other words, they should handle input event whose inputType is insertReplacementText for updating the style of placeholder.
