Putting it in an object won't work, since you probably want the title to
be done per-request. To clarify what I'm saying, here's a small example of
how I would set the title for an edit page:
First, the template:
lift:surround at=content
head
titlelift:Info.title //title
/head
Are you showing me a way for Title to access this information? In this case
Info is the original snippet class? Is this a way to access Info.title
outside of the instance of Info?
What would be ideal, at least in a certain sense, is if there would be some
way for the Loc to access the snippet
The snippet itself can bind the title if it has the head inside it.
Something like:
lift:surround at=content
lift:MySnippet.method
head
titlemysnippet:title //title
/head
...
/lift:MySnippet.method
/lift:surround
This is what I do (with no title element in the default template).

If you're just looking for a way to programmatically set the title, getting
into LocParam might be a little bit of overkill. It's probably simpler to
set up your own SessionVars or RequestVars and access them from the Title
closure:
You mean the snippet should put its new/edit flag somewhere that the Title can
read, like a top level object? Then it doesn't need to be an AnyVar because it
can be set on every request, if Title is processed after the snippet in each
request--and if not then I don't see how a RequestVar etc.
Maybe my setup is atypical then :)
My default.html is does not have a title tag; instead each view has its own,
relying on head merge.
I don't know if originally I had it in default using lift:Menu.title or not,
but the difficulty with that would be that some pages can be used to edit or
add a
