Is this bug still active? I'm confused by what Sankar means by the ~"title text" should be populated from the alt attribute. 

1. I think he means that the visible tooltip should use @alt if @title is null. If this is the purpose of his bug, I'm not sure there is a HTML backing for this, and I'd recommend closing the bug.

2. He might also mean that the ~"label text" or "accessible name" should be populated from @alt or @title. If so, HTML only specifies (and WebKit only supports) this via img at alt, but see bug 114535, which is to support img at title as the ~"label text" or "accessible name" according to the WAI-ARIA name computation when img at alt is undefined. If Sankar mean this, we could dupe this one out to bug 114535.

3. If Sankar means something else entirely, I think he should close this bug (the patch appears to be obsolete now) and re-file with a more clear explanation.
