inlinemediaobject in alt?
In this situation, would
anyone ever want to use it to include an audio alternative to the text? Or is
that covered by programs like Jaws?

say: | I just noticed that the alt element in DocBook 5.0 contains text
and/or | inlinemediaobject. Can someone remind me why we have
inlinemediaobject in alt, | given that the reference page calls it a
text-only annotation?
Inlinemediaobject is basically allowed anywhere
text is so that it can be used to introduce glyphs not available in the
document's encoding.
Be seeing you,
