Comment(by hakre):

 I've updated the patch against the latest Trunk. alt attributes should be
 replaced with labels according to this tickets discussion. I've seen that
 on some places labels have already be inserted and i've seen that ryan is
 taking care of comitting related to this ticket. But while updating the
 patch I've seen as well that some labels are bound to wrong inputs and not
 every alt="TODO" tagged input element has a label.

 so there is some work to do to add labels. the ''alt="TODO"''-makers in
 this patch help to locate those places and quality control already created
 label elements if they are bound to the right input element.

 a question: is it necessary for submit buttons to have labels? normally
 they have already a decribing value, right?
