By "ignores the height of an image", just which image did you mean?
You didn't supply an image, so the size of it becomes an irrelvance.
Instead FF sizes the relevant box to be a suitable sive to display the
alt text you supplied. On the whole, this seems like a more useful
behaviour, IMHO.

What do you mean by "break" ? If you mean that the layout of the
website will break if the image isn't present, then that's the fault
of the coder for relying on using images to control the size and
layout of things! That technique has been obsolete for over 10 years,
since HTML 4 and CSS first appeared.
