UISearchBar placeholder missing

LTBouncyPlaceholder is awesome, but it seems to break UISearchBar. When it's used in a project the search bar's placeholder is not showing.

It's unsafe to swizzling drawPlaceholderInRect() of UITextField class. The text field in UISearchBar whose class name is UISearchBarTextField is a subclass of UITextField.
I guess the best practice to use swizzling is not to use it under most circumstances.

@lexrus Agree. Subclass works more safely than extension or swizzling. Thanks for the quick fix!
