Of course 99.9% of you already do so by default, but sometimes sloppy CMSs
or CMS editing processes can result in these attributes being left off IMG
tags. Until recently I thought the only downside of this was the page
rendering in a messy way, with layout shifting as images download.
However, on CSS-based layouts, this can also cause IE to crash completely.
If you resize text rapidly using the scrollwheel, it will trigger an error
in MSHTML.DLL -- tested on IE6 on WinXP on a fast PC.
