Comment (by Otto42):

 Replying to [comment:5 justinsomnia]:
 > Otto42, I hear your concern, but I would suggest that the way to turn it
 off would be through the template, rather than a global config option.
 Remember having a title really benefits the feeds. It seems to me that the
 first X chars of the post makes for the least offensive generated title.
 That said, if consensus is for enabling or disabling this feature via a
 config option, I could be happy with that.

 I'm not suggesting a global config option. I'm suggesting not having this
 change at all. Or, if you do have it, have it a) done via a filter and b)
 not on by default. I'd prefer that this be in a plugin entirely, as I
 cannot see any use for it outside of these specialized cases, but I do
 think that having a filter on the title could be useful for other things.
