Comment (by quanin):

 Replying to [comment:15 azaozz]:
 > If not, seems the only alternative would be to remove the link from `div
 .wp-menu-image` and handle clicks there with JS. Then screen readers would
 disregard this div and continue on to the "real" link that has text.

 This patch doesn't actually do anything screenreader-wise. Functionality
 is same as without patching at all.
