I think in this case even better would be to leave the alt attribute blank. The post title in the <h2> is fine as link text and the image content is likely not important in this context.
On the page that the header links to, where the image is part of the content, you'd need a descriptive alt attribute.
I've left the href in the link blank because it is just sample code. Really it would point to the blog post so an <a> element is needed rather than adding a tabindex to the <h2>

In the site where I used this technique I was able to get around this for IE by having the gradient as background on a li element and the plus sign on a nested a element.
You could maybe use a nested div or span to make it work.
I haven't checked IE9, but I imagine the non-prefixed W3C CSS rules will work fine.

I think you're right, it would be better if browser manufacturers made text re-sizing tools more prominent. I have a vague memory of one of the early browsers doing just that. A quick look on Wikipedia produced this screenshot of IE3.
I'm quite suprised to hear that those buttons aren't available to add to Firefox, but I just checked on my Mac and that's the case there.
If those options were there, then maybe the next step would be presenting the chance to customise the toolbars the first time you load the browser.
