Why should the resulting string " " meaning "ampersand n b s p
semicolon" be appropriate for a decorative image? Do you mean the
non-breaking space character? That would be alt=" " in (X)HTML.
My question: Why would you like to allow three possible solutions that
need to be implemented in WCAG2.0 conforming user agents when one
solution (alt="") would be enough?
