Comment (by maltfield):

 I (and much of the userbase) recognize this as a bug, because it doesn't
 do what most users expect it to do. Here's another article describing the
 current buggy behaviour defying user expectations:

  * https://therenegadecoder.com/meta/updating-alt-text-in-wordpress-media-
 library-does-not-update-images-in-posts/

 If we decide not to change the default behaviour, then I think we should
 at least add a button to the Media Library (next to "Update" button and
 "delete permanently" link when editing the image) that triggers wordpress
 to propagate the changes to the image attributes throughout the wordpress
 site's usage of that media.
