Do you ever actually want the TeX as the alt? It sounds like it’d make for a pretty crap accessibility experience!
Replying to @cookiecrook and @LeaVerou
I don’t know, falling back to alt feels dirty to me. What if there are several images that could use different alt?
Replying to @cookiecrook and @LeaVerou
And down that path lies falling back to aria-label and whatnot. Especially since this is transitional.
Replying to @cookiecrook and @LeaVerou
During the transition, no fallback+no shim+no browser support seems like a corner case, no?
