Title:
  Edit and delete buttons need descriptive alt text

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  To be accessible to screen readers, all images and image-like elements
  need an alt attribute specified. One area where this is not the case
  is edit and delete buttons.

  - In the Journal, Delete buttons have a title attribute but no alt attribute (they need both)
  - Notes is the same
  - Delete buttons in Resume composite forms have alt="[x]" which should be changed to something more descriptive
  - Manage tasks buttons in Plans use a missing string for alt text
  - Edit and Delete buttons in group Forums have no alt attribute specified (same in Topics)

  Ideally most of these should include the name of the thing to be
  edited/deleted in the alt text, eg. "Edit 'My plan'", since sometimes
  the editing buttons appear above the name of the thing to be deleted
  (in the HTML source) and sometimes they appear below.
