Like Ethan said, you can only have a <xforms:hint> for the control,
not for the label of the control. I am a bit puzzled as to what you
trying to do displaying the value of the input in the hint. If the
value is in the hint, then it won't be editable, right? Then wouldn't
you want to have an <xforms:output> instead? Would you like to have
the value displayed both in the text field, and next to it in a hint?
