<pre>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 <a href="http://jsbin.com/nomoce/edit?html,css,output">http://jsbin.com/nomoce/edit?html,css,output</a>
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.</pre>
