Discovered while testing narrator translations.
The Bug:
When using the Windows Narrator function in the Minecraft: Java Edition tab, the narrator reads the file names of news banners as well as their resolution. Normally, alt-texts (alternative texts) are used for screen elements such as banners and hero images, making this inconsistent with other parts of the Launcher.
I have attached a screen recording with audio of the narrator reading the Launcher window for Minecraft: Java Edition. Below is a table of the transcribed audio from that attachment.
This bug is also reproducible in the latest beta versions b.2.3.647 (New Windows App) and b.2.3.651 (Legacy Windows).
