TextHint could be visibile even when edit is focused (but still empty of course). This is how many edit controls work nowadays, e.g address edit in FireFox
This is exactly what I was thinking. The rekonq browser has the same. It is even able to put a button in front of the text in the edit and start the text after the edit + the hint text is centered. I admit that I don't know if rekonq uses Qt or Gtk2.

Whereas I know how to achieve it on Windows (one can find a lot of sources for it in the internet), on other widgetsets it could be tricky as Bart already stated. Unfortunately I don't have the knowledge to do it in all widgetsets :(
