Well a drawString method in canvas can be used for drawing the axis labels or values on a dinamic _javascript_ graphic, but is non sense an aural reader read it, theres no way (yet) to read an image to a blinded people, there are cases where is imposible the accessibility, is imposible for a blind to play video games, and accessibility dont stop the video games creation. In the case of images or the canvas the alt attribute could do the job.

I believe that some people's reason for not wanting to add it was because of Accessibility concerns.
Although normal text in a webpage... or even a text image (with the "alt" attribute filled in properly) could be "read" by a person with disabilities, text embedded in the canvas element could not.
Perhaps people need to think about how to add Accessibility to the canvas while allowing a "drawString" procedure.
