            Bug ID: 153273
           Summary: Show alternative text while images are loading
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 9
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Images
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: hallo at justmarkup.com

On Firefox the alternative text is shown while the images are not loaded. Especially on slow connections it would be very useful to see the alternative text. It may also improve accessibilty of many sites, as authors would see the alternative text on load and would spend more time providing useful text. 

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open http://jsbin.com/nomoce/edit?html,css,output
2. Wait for the image to load
3. Alternative text is not shown

What is the expected behavior?
Alternative text is shown while the image is loading.
