Placeholder not working for autocomplete widget - multiple

[vinbrown]

I'm setting up an autocomplete field with a placeholder (see below for example), but the placeholder doesn't display. I've found that the placeholder only shows up if I set [multiple] to false. Is this by design? If so, it would be a great feature to add.

<p-autoComplete
id="customerIdField"
[(ngModel)]="customerIds"
[suggestions]="filteredCustomers"
(completeMethod)="filterCustomers($event)"
styleClass="vendor-customer-name"
[minLength]="1"
placeholder="getRecipientTypeName() + ' Name'"
field="name"
[multiple]="true">

Are you using PrimeNG? Just want to make sure.

I am using PrimeNg and have the same issue than vinbrown. Placeholder does not work when "multiple" attribute is true.
