Using the "title" attribute means pointing-device-users would get a
tooltip saying "introduction" obscuring the text if they happened to
have the cursor hovering over that region. Not good usability, IMHO.
I occasionally come across sites that make extensive use of "title",
and 99 times out of 100 it's more of an impediment than a help. Even
the supposed accessibility advantages are open to question:

I'd still vote for using a class, or an id if you can be certain it
will only appear once a page. If the visual distinction in the
required design actually does represent a semantically meaningful
distinction between that paragraph and the others, rather than just
being window dressing, then a <p><em>... would probably be
justifiable; I don't think that going all the way to <strong> is
necessary.

Nick.
