Description

[Stephen Donner [:stephend] Not actively reading bugmail]

STR:

1. Load http://input.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/sad
2. Click on the "Had an issue..." checkbox

Expected:

The pre-filled http:// shouldn't go away when onchange is fired

Actual:

It does, making the pre-filling not really all that useful...

It's a HTML5 placeholder attribute. We could replace the placeholder text altogether and say "enter a URL here" or something. OOOOR we remove the placeholder altogether, make http:// a *value* instead of a placeholder, and then have to filter out all invalid submissions of just "http://" server-side.

Tired of dealing with this in the UI.  Committing a fix.
