Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: The HTML spec intentionally defers to the SVG spec in the case where
the SVG doc.title is to reign. Once SVG is updated so that SVGDocument is
always implemented in SVG UAs, its doc.title will presumable similarly defer
back to HTML in cases where the SVG one doesn't apply. That way both specs can
co-exist without the other having to be updated when either one changes.

Both interfaces need to define it, since there are HTML UAs that aren't SVG UAs
and SVG UAs that aren't HTML UAs.
