comment on Longdesc extension

Hi,

Yandex would like to make an editorial request for an extra use case.  
Discoverability is important for a couple of reasons - one is enabling a  
search engine to find descripitons of images, since image search is now a  
very common thing to do.

The other is in finding resources where images have a detailed  
description, given it is clear that many images are more complex than will  
be described in a simple alt (or even an alt that is long enough to be  
unwieldy)...

cheers

Chaals
