 > All this change will accomplish is that SEO plugins will need to ask
 users to ensure their theme doesn't contain a <title> tag at all, rather
 than asking them to ensure it only contains `wp_title('')`. I don't
 believe that achieves anything.

 Actually, you're right; a theme could signal that it uses wp_title()
 correctly with add_theme_supports(), which could then be leveraged by SEO
 plugins and by Core to add some output for is_front_page() etc.
