Public bug reported: The global title attribute is used to indicate a tooltip that should be shown when the mouse hovers over the element.
For Touch environments without a mouse, I'm not sure if we should do anything special. It *could* be part of the context menu shown after a long press on the relevant element. But for a first pass, we could just not show it in that case. I mostly see the title attribute these days on webcomics that use it for a second "hidden" joke, as an attribute on the main comic's image.
