According to a recent accessibility scan that we have acquired, some screen readers can't make sense of images without alt text in a link element.

Link A elements labelled with a TITLE attribute, and only containing an image don't work in:

Link A elements labelled with a ARIA-LABELLEDBY attribute, and only containing an image don't work in:

NVDA 2014.1 with IE11 (the link HREF is read before the ARIA label)
JAWS 15 with IE11 (the image filename is read instead)
WindowEyes 8.4 with IE11 (when tabbing the ARIA label is spoken, when reading the link HREF is spoken)
VoiceOver on OSX 10.9 (the image filename is read instead)
SaToGo 3.4 with IE11 (reads blank link text)

is duplicated by

MDL-35486 Fixup phpdoc typo (was File-upload dialog missing alt-texts on some images)
