The text-align property isn't marked as applying to the placeholder.  Maybe it should be?

Seems reasonable.  A spec would be nice, though.

This should allow setting text-align on ::-moz-placeholder.

It would be great if this could be pushed after being reviewed given that I am going to be 100% offline for a week in a few hours.
