Description: Best to show the (verbatim) scientificName for images without a title.
The common js library building the image gallery is doing ajax calls and doesn't have access to the rest of the occurrence so fixing this is non-trivial.

The no title gets set as part of the imageGallery in widgets.js here:
https://github.com/gbif/portal-web/blob/master/src/main/webapp/js/widgets.js#L1592
It tries to read an html title attribute and if not existing uses a default static value.
To make that value be the scientific name we should set the title attribute which is read into slideData at the initialization of the gallery here:
https://github.com/gbif/portal-web/blob/master/src/main/webapp/js/widgets.js#L1691
My initial idea was to add some post update hook for the occurrence slideshow which is currently doing nothing:
https://github.com/gbif/portal-web/blob/master/src/main/webapp/js/widgets.js#L1781
If that hook would be a function that gets the verbatim scientific name of the occurrence record and sets the title property in the json it should be done
