 Priority:  normal        |   Milestone:

 When adding an image directly to a post (using the media uploader), the
 alternate text specified by the user is used for the alt attribute of the
 img element. When using the [gallery] shortcode, however, the alt
 attribute for each image is a duplicate of the caption (post_excerpt) for
 that image. The alternate text supplied by the user is not used at all.
