Comment (by lewismedia):

 Is this not a simple fix, for the minority of users (myself included), who
 prefer NOT to have the title tag inserted automatically:


 {{{
 function remove_attachment_title_attr( $attr ) {
         unset($attr['title']);

         return $attr;
 }
 add_action('wp_get_attachment_image_attributes',
 'remove_attachment_title_attr');
 }}}

 Definitely digging the idea of offering users the option to display or not
 display with a checkbox or dropdown, though I am in agreement that this
 would be confusing for your average Joe Schmoe end user who doesn't even
 know what a title tag IS...
