Comment:

 Due to the useless / repetitive nature of title attributes when used in
 screen readers (discussed in #24766), it may not be best to proceed with
 adding a title attribute for this ticket.

 If this was within wp-admin we could alter the actual anchor text to
 include both the commenter name and comment number, then wrap that new
 text within `<span class="screen-reader-text">`. For the front end though
 it would require themes support the screen-reader-text class along with
 http://codex.wordpress.org/CSS#WordPress_Generated_Classes which we cannot
 guarantee at the moment.
