• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

This can muck with whitespace addition/removal with iOS smart editing.

This should probably take `const Node&` as the argument type.

Nit - I think this comment would be more effective inside `shouldEmitReplacementInsteadOfNode`, since that is where the notion of “emitting replacement characters instead of nodes" becomes relevant to `TextPlaceholderElement`.

Nit - I think you could actually omit this extra plumbing on WKWebView, and just use -textInputContentView instead to grab the WKContentView (exposed as a <UIWKInteractionViewProtocol>-conformant responder).

(Ditto)

Nit - the * should be on the other side here. But also, we can just use `auto` for these.

Ditto.

This should also go inside the `@optional` section, to match the actual SPI header.

I was matching the other `shouldEmit*` functions, but yeah I could do that.

It would be nice to have a few words here to explain why we want to emit the replacement character instead of a newline (something similar to what you already wrote in the comment below).

Should write:

    objectReplacementCharacter

Instead of:

    0xFFFC

It’s in the header CharacterNames.h.

Oh neat!  I did not know that existed :)

Will land a followup.
