Comment:
In my opinion, this would be an expected behavior.
Indeed, when an image is replaced, there is a strong chance that the best
alt text for the new image won't be the same one than with the previous
one.
Of course, we could keep the alt text unchanged, but in this case we
should also add a "don't forget to verify your alt text" heads up message,
which sounds overkill to me :)
