Added that suggestion to the issue tracker. https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/Group/track/issues/636 > Was trying to get away from such a long name for the attribute but also capture the idea that utilization of this attribute is an alternative that may be useful to some AT in the same way that alt text is more useful. Also captures the need for localization because most people realize that alt text is somethat needs to be localized. My judgement is still out on the suggestion. I like it for some reasons, I don't for others, and I'm not sure I can qualify them all yet. What do others think?
