Re: [jlreq] Cursor movement in vertical text (#462)

@duerst This is history revisionism. The alt attribute existed long before accessibility was a concern.

Read RFC1866 yourself. There’s no mention of screen readers or anything related to accessibility; the concern, way back in 1995, was text-mode web browsers (there really was just one at the time, lynx). People will still using text-based computer terminals.
