Kino.Input.text resulting in [object HTMLInputElement]
Hello
I am in the process of learning elixir and have started with Livebook for data analysis. It’s been working brilliantly so I’m eager to do some more advanced (from my low level) 
stuff.
When I test with
name = Kino.Input.text("Your name")
and now we can greet the user back:
IO.puts("Hello, #{Kino.Input.read(name)}!")
As a result I get the following:
Hello, [object HTMLInputElement]!
I’m using the sample Livebook that comes with the v0.9.2 install:

Hey, thanks for the report, it appears to be a LV bug (Invalid value reported for inputs with `name="value"` · Issue #2680 · phoenixframework/phoenix_live_view · GitHub). Fortunately it only affects Livebook main and I’ve just applied a workaround in Use different html name for output inputs by jonatanklosko · Pull Request #1970 · livebook-dev/livebook · GitHub : )

Now I’m impressed, already a fix in progress. This makes me even more convinced that I made the right choice to start learning elixir!!

Now I have downloaded

and now it works perfectly!
Thanks for the incredibly quick action!
