The description of a complex picture may be helpful to people without a disability. Why hide it in the fallback content and force editors to repeat the content elsewhere? If I make it part of the page, how would e.g. a screen reader know that the particular content is connected to the image? Why not make it possible to use CSS and script to modify the presentation of the description. An example could be that the user is able to click and slide out the description from underneath the image or choose to display it some other way. Regards, Peter
