Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 @joemcgill thanks for the quick fix here, I was looking at this ticket
 today with @afineman and wondering if in `wp.html.string` we should be
 inserting as the comment calls it 'empty attribute notation' for any
 attribute?

 Googling the alt tag specifically, I clearly see that it should be a blank
 string and not just `alt` with no value... my question is: is it ever
 proper HTML syntax to insert an attribute without a value, ie. `attribute`
 vs. `attribute=""`?
