We don’t complete generic fields anymore since 1.9.3, as it does not make much 
sense to complete full field values that generically are unique, while this 
does add a lot of overhead. So I don’t really see why completing Titile would 
have any use, as different items will generally not have the same title. 

But in 1.9.4 you can add more fields to include for completion. It is explained 
on the Wiki in the Tips & Tricks section. The key is 
BDSKAdditionalFieldsToComplete.
