I added the limit because of tables, really.  :-)  I found that in my
test cases, the alt texts were typically the thing that took up most
space, because it's not uncommon to have obnoxiously long, but
nonsensical alt texts, and when rendering tables, this made many of them
somewhat unreadable.

So the limitation can be removed outside of tables, but not inside.  The
length (8) could probably be increased, though.  16?
