AnchorField is missing placeholder text

[mfendeksilverstripe]

Module version(s) affected

4.0.6

Description

Internal link (site tree link) uses AnchorField as a part of the link edit form. This field used to have a placeholder text Select or enter anchor but now it's gone.

How to reproduce

• install linkfield module
• attach a link to any model so you can view the Link edit form (modal)
• click on add link and choose Site tree link (page on this site option)

Expected behaviour:

Placeholder text is visible.

Actual behaviour:

Placeholder text is not visible.

Possible Solution

Possibly related to AnchorSelectField component. I can see the placeholder text is still in the code but doesn't display for some reason.

Additional Context

Noticed during CMS 5 upgrade.
