 (I tried to search for this both in here and the pull requests on github
 but there is an eerie quiet about it.)

 `Textarea` seems to be one of the few (if not the only) widget not
 defining `input_type`.
 I can't think of a good reason why it couldn't have one and some people
 find out about this strange omission when they try to do something like:

 {{{
         for field in self.fields:
             widget = self.fields[field].widget

             if widget.input_type == "select":
                ...
             elif widget.input_type == "checkbox":
                ...
 }}}

 but end up with:

 {{{
 ...
 AttributeError: 'Textarea' object has no attribute 'input_type'
 }}}
