I think it would also be suitable to change the name from "alt text" to
something like "accessibile description".
Changing the name to something to do with accessibility is something I
agree with.
For what it's worth, when I suggested the name change I thought thatHTML IMG "alt" was the tooltip and "title" was the accessibledescription. But in fact that is backwards; alt text is the accessibledescription. So at this point I don't think a name change is necessary.I'm not opposed to renaming, though, if it would avoid repeating themisunderstanding I had.
