Hi Benjamin,

This is what I was thinking ... keep text in the DOM (except where
presentational text might further assist the content) and focus on placing
presentational images within the CSS. I just wondered if screen readers
would alert the user that an image has been found in the CSS if it was
referenced the content property, in the way they would when finding an image
in the DOM.
