Hi,

you can override the placeholder's color by redefining the key 
"text-placeholder" in your application's color theme.

This color definition is accessed directly from qx.ui.form.AbstractField 
since it's a global style for all text fields and text areas. So it 
doesn't follow the usual path of appearance -> decorator -> color, 
making it a bit hard to find, as you've noticed.

Regards,
Daniel
