Simon Kitching reopened TOMAHAWK-1291:
--------------------------------------


I don't agree with the patch for this issue, which just outputs an alt 
attribute with empty text if it is not defined.

This fulfils the *letter* of the xhtml specification, but not its intention. 
The purpose of the alt attribute is to make pages accessable to blind users, by 
*requiring* each image to have a textual description. Generating an empty 
string description by default does nothing whatsoever to make the page 
accessable.

> t:graphicImage doesnot generate XHTML complaint code
