Hi Matt,

Thanks for your thoughts.  We will discuss at one of the AAPI meetings.

> So, I think the API working group needs to revisit the implementation of the text role to make sure that accessible objects exist for the images.

We haven't finished with the AAPI discussions about the text role since 
it's ongoing.  That is, there is no need to revisit, since we are 
already visiting.

aria-visiting="true".
