You bring up a good point about the title element. However, I wonder if screen readers do anything with something like <title>Page Title - <acronym title="British Broadcasting Corporation">BBC</acronym></title> That would be the only sensible kind of markup for the title element, in my opinion. Of course, the spec doesn't state that the title needs to be rendered by a user agent such as in the title bar of a browser like Firefox or as the heading for a search engine result. I think it would make sense to leave the title element as it is. I should note that it seems a bit more like metainformation than anything else. Something along the lines of: <meta name="title">Page Title - <acronym title="British Broadcasting Corporation">BBC</acronym></meta> I don't know though.
