The equivalent to the HTML "Input" tag's "placeholder" attribute is the "XbpSLE:CueBanner". I don't think this is something that makes much sense in a non-GUI environment, like a Get field, though, as you would need to display the "placeholder" value (in a subdued color) whenever the Get is empty. That would seem to be very confusing to the user, in my opinion. Why not use XbpSLE() objects and the :CueBanner iVar instead?

BTW, if you meant the XbpGet class (rather than the Get class), it already has the :CueBanner instance variable and functionality, as it is derived from the XbpSLE class.
