--- Comment #4 from Charles McCathieNevile <chaals@yandex-team.ru> ---
This should be part of the work that Liam and Shane do on proposals for text
alternatives.

As far as I can tell, title is helpful *in addition to alt* on area attributes,
sometimes provides useful information to sighted users *redundantly, in
addition to alt* for images, and is otherwise not a lot of help as a text
alternative.

There's a potentially separate use case for forms.

I agree we should describe how to use title, rather than just what *not* to do.
