Description
Currently the image alt and title tags are taken from the term name and description. However, this doesn't provide a way to conform with accessibility guidelines that state that an alt tag must be used to describe the function of the image, which in many cases the term description does not do. The ability to customise the title tag is a must to.

I second the request. I am using Creative Commons licensed images that require attribution, and was thinking of using the "alt" attribute for that purpose. The project page says that I can add custom tags to img markup, but I have not found a way of doing it, so currently I am not providing any attribution at all. Thank you.
