HTML supports the placeholder attribute, so we should use it instead of implementing it ourselves. The placeholder attribute is not available prior IE10 (not including IE10). However: 1. In non-supporting browsers (e.g., IE9), the search functionality should still work correctly. 2. Non-supporting browsers don't qualify for the "full support" level detailed in racket#240 IE9 for instance is released in 2011, and Microsoft announced its end of support in 2016.

Also, technically this is a bug fix. Currently, if users type
...search manuals...as a search query, focus somewhere else, and then focus the search box again, the text will disappear.
