I know it must be there for validation. It's there but I don't use it 
when coding in regular html. As I see it the alt-attribute is not that 
relevant today. Some use it for SEO but for what I know I don't think 
it's that important.

I ment on a global basis so I don't have to edit the rails image tag.

True. My thought was that there could still be some difference in how 
the code and html is handled (guessing). :-) Could also be that I'm on a 
slow server (site5.com)

In any case, it looks bad when loading the page and that's the important 
thing.
