OK, how about: if the document element is an <html:html>, we choose the
first <html:title> in document order; if the document element is an
<svg:svg>, we choose the first child <svg:title> of the document
element; otherwise, null.
This still is going to produce "incorrect" results for things like:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<svg>
<foreignObject>
<title>blah</title>
</foreignObject>
</svg>
but arguably you shouldn't be using <title> in there anyway.
