Inside the HTML bundle you will find a "drag command" titled: "Insert  
Image With dimensions". This command inserts as snippet with a couple  
of placeholders, and it gets called when an image is dragged,  
provided it has extension png,jpg,jpeg or gif. When more than one  
images are being dragged, it looks like they are treated  
sequentially, hence the text for the second is inserted exactly where  
the first placeholder is for the first, and so on. The simple answer  
I see is to modify that command in your case, so that it just inserts  
some text, without placeholders for the alt attribute.
