@nhoizey Trying to improve IndieWebness of my photography site, I wonder about this `<data>` HTML tag used on the `h-geo` microformat: http://microformats.org/wiki/h-geo#FAQ

# [schmarty] The first rule of ARIA is don't use ARIA if you don't have to. A role of "presentation" will cause assistive technology to ignore the image, much like an empty alt attribute.
# [schmarty] The main takeaway of the article I linked is that profile images are not necessarily "redundant" with the name of the person. You should capture in alt text what the image conveys in context.
