I don't think we need "a signal that the image is significant but in lack of alternative text" as: 1. Developers can already distinguish images that are not significant by adding @alt and images that are significant by omitting @alt. 2. AT interested in exposing images that might be significant to end users already need to expose images with missing @alt. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis
