I don't think we > should be trying to override user configuration … 3 questions: 1. So do AT in general treat @title and @alt as one and the same thing when it comes to that configuration? (To test whether it has any impact, one may use this page, which is what I used when writing the CP: http://malform.no/testing/html5/img-role-vs-alt/ ) 2. What if such an image contains @aria-label? 3. Does it really hurt if they are unable to no disable announcement of images that are key content? -- Leif Halvard Silli
