Public bug reported:

Child of Bug #1271772

To be accessible to screen readers, all images and image-like elements
need an alt attribute specified. Currently, the 'hide' button for the
information box on the Dashboard has the alt text '[x]' which is not
descriptive. Also, the anchor element it's inside has no href specified
which seems to make some screen readers ignore it.
