[Patternfly] Share your thoughts: syntax hints used in forms

[Leslie Hinson]

Thanks for sending this out Jessica.

One of the things that will be tricky if figuring out a solution for how
this text behaves in the responsive states. That would be the advantage of
putting syntax help inside the text box. However, I know that it's a
usability issue when the syntax help disappears when the user clicks.
