can edit broken image's alt text, but it is not saved

[kae]

if you have an image with a broken URL, the alt text will show in Firefox. this alt text is editable, but the changes are not saved.

to test:

1. open 2.4.3 demo
   
2. click Source
   
3. replace all source with '<img src="blah" alt="test" />'
   
4. click Source
   
5. the word "test" is visible and editable. edit the text.
   
6. click Source again.
   
7. the changes you made are not visible.

This is a bug in Firefox, it should be reported in ​http://bugzilla.mozilla.org after checking that isn't fixed in their latest alpha, and using ​http://www.mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo/

marking for 2.6 to report later.

If the broken image has dimensions set then the alt isn't editable:

<img src="" alt="picture" height="200" width="200">

Testing with Firefox 3.0 beta 3, the bug no longer happens. So it seems the Mozilla devs have already fixed this bug.
