I lose the tag and I lose the contents of the alt attribute (good alt text is not the same as a good caption! The caption tells you how to interpret the picture, the alt text tells you what the picture would be if you could see it). Are there any ways of avoiding these side effects? If any of you can suggest a more appropriate tool than pandoc for my use case (take a HTML fragment and some metadata, wrap the fragment in header and footer text with some values inserted from the metadata to create a valid HTML file) I will consider it.
