Not possible to set alt="" for Avatar

[ogonkov]

I can't set alt to empty string, because it trying to fallback to title

uikit/src/components/Avatar/Avatar.tsx

Line 43 in 733c5b3

alt={props.alt || title}

@ogonkov Images with empty strings in alt attribute are not accessible. Why you want it?

[ogonkov]

It has presentation role, this is valid usage

Has it? We don't allow set this prop

[ogonkov]

Yes. In some cases you don't want to expose image to a11y technologies.

In case of avatar this could be the case when it followed by user name, for example and setting alt text for avatar is obsolete.

@ogonkov We decided to remove alt prop entirely from the component props
