    Nicolas> Whenever EWW renders a page that includes a <textarea> element which
    Nicolas> contains text, that text is not displayed.

    Nicolas> The reason is that the text of a textarea is not given in an
    Nicolas> attribute, as with other input elements, but as the textual contents
    Nicolas> of the element.

    Nicolas> Specifically, in function 'eww-tag-textarea', the line:
    Nicolas> 	(value (or (dom-attr dom 'value) ""))
    Nicolas> should be replaced with:
    Nicolas>         (value (or (dom-text dom) ""))

    Nicolas> Hope this helps,
