Hey all,

I'd like to discuss how we deal with alt text. Right now, we do something which is not very useful - grabbing the title of the node and putting that as default alt text.

What if we managed the alt text on the node level rather than the media level (as it might apply to multiple expressions of the same object) and grabbed it when displaying image media as images?

I'm only talking about normal images right now - for large images, it seems like HOCR being readable, selectable text would solve the accessibility issues.
