Is it ?  I understood the debate as being more about
the assertion (which I share) that there is no such thing
as a content image that cannot have useful ALT
information added (as opopsed to "does not have", which
is just describing the status quo of a large number
of extant web pages).  "Spacer" images, I believe
most of us agree, are best marked up (in current
syntax) as <img alt="">.
