Ugi:

The way you describe the lazy loading is exactly what we are doing. We are swapping the src attribute once the image is in viewport. My concern is with WCAG 2.2.2 -- that the spinner could spin longer than 5 seconds if the user is on a slow connection or indefinitely if the user has JS disabled.

Thoughts?
