Oh, also... once you're in the field, the placeholder disappears and you have no idea what you were meant to type (which is why the plugin slides to the side by default).

No. Placeholders stay visible until user starts typing. That is, empty focused field still has visible placeholder.
Only in Chrome. Not in Firefox, at least.
True! It wasn't like this when I wrote the plugin though, plus I needed the effect to work cross-browser.
