Thanks for the suggestion! I recorded it here, and we’ll consider adding placeholder support in a future Jetpack update.

So is there a way/place to see whats planed for next version of Jetpack in trac? Like milestones etc?
You can check all opened tickets here. That can give you an idea of all things that need to be fixed in Jetpack.
You can also check the “Developers” tab on the plugin page to find out about the latest Betas, and all the commits to the plugin’s development branch:

We’ve just added a new placeholder attribute to the Contact Form shortcode. You can check the change here:

This improvement will be part of the next Jetpack release.
