Public bug reported:
In the "Settings" app, I've noticed that in certain pages where it
contains an editable text field with a placeholder, such as "Device
name" and "User name", the placeholder's font rendering is different and
inconsistent with the rest of the UI. These placeholders have no font
hinting, but the rest of the Settings screen has hinting.
