      On both macOS and windows, black is returned when querying Qpalette for the place holder text color. While I have no idea how to query the correct color on windows, it can be retrieved on macOS using

      NSColor * placeholderTextColor = [ [ NSColor placeholderTextColor ] colorUsingColorSpace: [ NSColorSpace deviceRGBColorSpace ] ];
