The draft adds: "[begin add]This failure would apply equally in a case where the background image was declared in the HTML style attribute, as well as in a case where the background image declaration was created dynamically in a client script (see example 3 below).[end add]" but the title does not reflect this significant and wonderful addition.

The proprose change makes the naming more general and applicable to all ways to provide an non-decorative img and also give a subtle hint what solution.

Proposed Change:
Modify name to:
Failure of [...] due to not using the img tag for images that [...]; Related issues: (space separated ids); WG Notes:; Resolution: CSS, in our estimation, can refer to both of the newly added styling methods mentioned in the description. Even when added via script, the background image property is still a CSS property, as are properties included in the style attribute. We would prefer to include CSS in the title, as opposed to the more generic title suggested in the comment, so that readers will quickly understand which specific methods of adding images are in fact a failure. The suggested title in the comment, i.e. not using the img tag, might then have to be expanded to include input elements of type image at the very least, perhaps other elements as well, thus rendering the title verbose.; (Please make sure the resolution is adapted for public consumption)
