Comment (by iamtakashi):

 Sorry if I wasn't clear but we should change all input and textarea in the
 sidebar if we change it.

 Anyway, after a bit of research, it turns out placeholder text gets lower
 opacity by default from Firefox 19 and that was why it appeared darker
 than how it should be. So the appropriate fix is explicitly setting
 `opacity: 1;` for `::-moz-placeholder` [http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css
 /style-placeholder-text/#comment-267934 Ref.]

 I lighten a bit of the placeholder text on top of that, but for the
 border, I don't want lighten it too much so I changed it to the same with
 the color of the border used in the sidebar: `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2)`
 and `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3)` for hover.
