If titles are indeed supposed to be unique then should we not 
implement them with a classid such as OBJECT has in order to 
guarantee no two documents have the same title?

While I think distinguishing titles are nice I think the context of a 
document (it's URL or file path possibly) should also help 
distinguish it's true nature.  On our site we use shortened titles to 
avoid such titles as:

<TITLE>Big Picture Multimedia: Mortar: Docs: Developer: Compiler Functions: 
Libraries: Nifty: RainbowText</TITLE>
