Sometimes one sees apps (on different platforms) where the user is invited to 
type something into a field, and the field is pre-filled with a text which 
disappears the moment the user starts typing - the initial text says stuff like 
'type your name here'. This type of text is not preselected (apparently) - so 
it must be a special type of text, but I don't know how to make it appear. 
Specifically, in LC's iOS implementation, the 'ask' dialog scripting looks like 
this:

ask [ question | password ] prompt [ with initialAnswer ] [ titled title ]    

so the question resolves to: how do I make the initialAnswer text a 'ghost' 
text such as I have described, or is it impossible?
