Description

I believe when inserting an image with no alt text specified, a blank alt attribute should be inserted into the markup.

This has already been discussed on the forum.

Blank alt attributes are convenient for decorative images, which don't make sense in a WYSIWYM editor, since they don't have any meaning.

It'd be better to simply avoid decorative images and educate the end-user. Furthermore, the 'Alternative text' input text should be mandatory IMHO.
