I few questions to thinking about:
- If the label and icon is not accessible then should we say something? Or we
should ignore it like we do for any other non-accessible components?
- Why the image text is used, don't we need to use the
"javax.accessibility.AccessibleRole#ICON" role for such label/icon and allow
the reader to say something standard for the icon. Does the voiceover has some
default text for the icon/image when the alt text is not set?
