[The image doesn't convey any information that would violate or
hinder the access of information on the site but it is there
nonetheless.]

If the image doesn't convey any information then the alt that would
be appropriate is "" anyway.

If the image does convey *any* information (beyond the authors' taste
in background images) then it's content and it should be included in
the HTML as such, not used as a background.
