Require image alt text

Keeping an eye on accessibility, I’d love to see an option that could let me require alt text be entered whenever an image is added to a record. With a large user base, it’s difficult to manually enforce this, so requiring the alt text (perhaps adding that as an option to the validation portion of the field) would be really helpful.

thank you @jdozier-ezell for the suggestion!

Since we are going to work on the media area in the near future ( https://www.datocms.com/blog/what-happened-in-last-three-months#future-plans ) I’m going to share this internally and it might be implemented soonish.

We’ll be in touch for updates!

That would be amazing. Thanks!

It’s now live @jdozier-ezell!
