Summary

This feature request is for an Alt-Text property for all widgets, which will display when the widget's visibility is set to hidden. The value could also be used to provide Alt-Text to the browser for Image widgets, and improve Appsmith's accessibility.

Why should this be worked on?

When a widget is set to hidden, the canvas is empty in that area and nothing else can be displayed in its place to communicate to the user why a certain feature/function is missing in their app. Another widget can be used to display a message to the user, but since widgets can't be stacked it just takes up more 'real estate' in the page. The empty space from the hidden widget would be the ideal place for this type of message to the user.
