            Bug ID: 155044
           Summary: Rename Format - Description menu item
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

The Format - Description menu item and the dialog (see attachment 186954) it
opens is used to enter accessible descriptions for various non-text objects.
These descriptions are then used by screen readers and in the HTML and PDF/UA
export as well.

I think it is not obvious what the menu item and the dialog are for (although
the dialogs tooltips explain the fields functions pretty well).

Suggestion: rename both to "Accessible Description" which would be more
intuitive.

For comparison MS Word calls the same thing "Alt text" which is semi-techspeak.
