Status: Accepted
Change Description: refer to commit
https://github.com/w3c/html/commit/a68049c2740788ec7ab12a6c036d51d0b9e42d0f
Rationale: The element was missing.if the image is being used as an image map
then it should not be removed from the accessibility tree - alt="" = role
presentation which is meant to remove it from the accessibility tree, so have
modified this case so that the presence of a usemap in combo with alt="" does
not override the img role.
