    I'm not sure this example fully reflects the intent of 
    <resourceDesc>.  As we've discussed earlier, <resourceDesc> was 
    intended to be roughly equivalent to an"alt=" attribute in an HTML 
    <img> tag... in that it would be a useful description for the benefit 
    of folks who can't see an image for personal or technological 
    reasons.  Just restating the MIME type doesn't really achieve that, 
    does it?
