Old description:

> text equivalent for every non-text element shall be provided (e.g., via
> "alt", "longdesc", or in element content).''
>
> To meet accessibility guidelines, the header images and backgrounds (when
> supported by a theme) need to be given user-editable alt tags.

New description:

 ''Section 1194.22 Web-based Internet information and applications: (a) A
 text equivalent for every non-text element shall be provided (e.g., via
 "alt", "longdesc", or in element content).''

 To meet accessibility guidelines, users need to be able to give custom
 header images (when supported by a theme) alt attributes.
