When trying to copy the placeholder text from the Chrome search bar (or other input fields), the placeholder is not selectable or copyable. Normally, users expect to be able to highlight and copy text, but the placeholder text remains inaccessible.

Open Google Chrome and click on the search bar (or any input field with placeholder text).
Click outside the search bar to deselect it.
Press Ctrl + A (to select all content in the field).
Press Ctrl + C (to copy the selection).
Paste (Ctrl + V) into a text editor (like Notepad).

Actual Behavior:
Selection of Placeholder Text:
After clicking on the Chrome search bar and then clicking outside, pressing Ctrl + A should highlight/select the placeholder text along with any other content.
Copying Placeholder Text:
When pressing Ctrl + C, the selected placeholder text should be copied to the clipboard.
Pasting the Content:
Upon pasting (using Ctrl + V in a text editor), the placeholder text should appear.

Expected  Behavior:
Selection Issue:

After clicking outside the search bar, pressing Ctrl + A does not select the placeholder text—it remains unhighlighted.
Copying Issue:

Pressing Ctrl + C results in no text being copied to the clipboard, even though the command was executed.
Pasting Outcome:

When the content is pasted in a text editor, it remains empty because the placeholder text was never actually selected or copied.
