Description

I can't find any support for helper text below inputs as described in this section in the Material Design documentation (note its interplay with error/validation text later in the section). Would it be possible to add support for this?

Research direction

Start with the linked Material Design documentation, focusing on how helper text interacts with error and validation text. No repository file, test, or entry point is named in the issue, so locate the existing input validation and helper-text support before deciding the scope. Done means inputs can display helper text and switch appropriately to error or validation text.
