In addition to alt, aria-label and aria-labelledby, we should check for title attribute as well.

Alex, is this still valid or a problem? What's the exact test case?

This issue is about to return null or empty string. Currently we do that for empty aria and native names, but we ignore title attribute on this way. Also we do that for images only.
