Depends on the API. On OS X, we'd probably expose:
<img role=text alt=foo> as AXStaticText { AXValue: "foo" }
instead of:
<img alt=foo> as AXImage { AXDescription: "foo" }
Bounds mappings would likely stay the same. If you have an API that expected this to be settable text, you could probably mark it readonly.
