Comment (by joostdevalk):

 Replying to [comment:56 jamalorg]:
 > Well. Introducing a new filterable template tag, probably without args,
 would do no harm. I didn't get the idea of hard-coding `<title></title>`
 tags inside the function. This is annoying approach.

 The reason for doing that is that otherwise the simplest thing to do for
 theme coders would be to add something within the `<title></title>` and
 not using the filters, the way they do now. To prevent that, we output the
 `<title>` completely outside of the theme and force everyone to use the
 filters, thus making sure each and every plugin has access to it.
