Description Carlos Garcia Campos 2011-03-22 11:42:54 UTC 
Now that placeholder text is supported by GtkEntry I think it makes sense to add support for it in editable cell renderers too. For cell renderers it's even more important because it's not obvious when they are editable. As Johannes commented on bug #440963, it could be used by glade that already has a custom implementation for the signal editor.

cellrenderertext: Add placeholder-text property

It works similar to placeholder text in a GtkEntry, if the cell renderer
is editable and it's empty, the placeholder text is displayed.
