Yes, you are right, <alt> would be much straightforward. The only problem is that <alt> is not allowed in HTML tables directly, it has to be surrounded by <caption> -- it will be then ambiguous whether alt provides summary for whole table or for caption only. > The other items in the Table Accessibility are still needed (scope, rowheader, headers). Uhm, yes I though that I should look on summary issue only. I will put some more cycles and thought these as well.
