Surely, there ARE cases where a purely visual site can NEVER be presented 'accessibly' in any eaningful way?


yes, but you're not thinking big picture enough (excuse the pun) alt attribute text provides more than just explanation for screen reader users, they can(are/will be) important for the semantic web - machines can't see, but a meaningful alt tag will help machines find the image you're looking for.
