Bug
For the "text" item type, providing a placeholder value does not create a placeholder in the Extension Preference UI.
Expected
When a value for placeholder is provided, the value should appear in the Extension Preference UI text box, similar to how placeholders work for the "path" item type.
Example
// extension.json
{
...,
"config": [
{
"title": "Paths",
"type": "section",
"children": [
{
"key": "njls.executable",
"title": "Executable Path",
"type": "path",
"placeholder": "/usr/local/bin/jedi-language-server",
"description": "Path to the jedi-language-server executable.",
"allowsFolders": false
},
{
"key": "njls.workspace.extraPaths",
"title": "Extra Paths",
"type": "text",
"placeholder": "/path/to/venv/site-packages",
"description": "Additional paths to pass to Jedi. Usually used for virtual env installations. Each path must be on it's own line."
},
]
},
...
}
Resulting Extension UI
I’d expect “/path/to/venv/site-packages” to appear as semi-opaque text in the Extra Paths text box.
