I don't know how Hal does it but in JAWS you can reassign words to be pronounced differently through a dictionary manager. It's primary use is for words that JAWS pronounces wrong, and you want to fix how they sound. Example: :) = smily.
I haven't looked at the actual game tags yet, but I'm wondering if it would be possible to take all of the text you find in the URL attached to each planet and remap it to say ... a blank space, perhaps. That way instead of http://blahblah.com/image/planet/squishy you would remap everything but the squishy to a single space. Then the image would just say squishy. I propose this because I assume the url text at the beginning is the same for all the links. This trick has also come in very handy in muds. In Lusternia I used to get really tired of seeing a statue every time I entered a new room. Now, as a result, I just replace the statue text with a blank space in the dictionary manager, and I'm no longer aware of them.
