I should have. :)

But don't you agree that an alternate representation of the image can contain hyper links (or even <strong>, or <cite>, ...)?
We're still dealing with HyperText, after all; no matter the place this hyper is placed in.

I agree the context may be very important to the background of an image, though getting redundant some informations available or not in the @alt most of the time, but why "forbidding" this possibility?
