Eww is from Emacs trunk.
See the attached screenshot.
If you take keen look, you will see that as I type, the grey rectangular
area "shifts" to the right.
IMHO, Aesthetics of text areas needs to be improved.

Do you have a test URL that demonstrates this bug? It's probably
something to do with front/rear-stickyness of the text properties
used...

Any Emacswiki page will do. Try this link for example.
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/?action=edit;id=EmacsNewbie
Textareas reminds me of my school days. Should I strictly type
between the "rules" :-)
I would rather prefer a border around the text area. What if Text area
overflows horizontally or vertically. Is there any support for
scrolling in that case :-)

This should now work slightly better...

Yes, but I'm not quite sure how to achieve that. Currently it just uses
(defface eww-form-text
'((t (:background "#505050"
:foreground "white"
:box (:line-width 1))))
which works perfectly for single-line inputs.
The vertical lines are elided when two characters with the same box face
are adjacent, but the horizontal lines are not.
Is this a bug in the face code, perhaps?

Nope. But it'll extend if you type at the last character on the last
line. :-)
