Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 @antonrinas thanks for the bug report.

 I don't understand your expected result //Post is shown in "Recent posts"
 without title.// - since the recent widget is displaying titles as a list,
 wouldn't this be a blank list item? Users need to click whatever shows to
 find the post, I don't think a 'blank' link makes sense!

 Showing the post id //is// confusing, perhaps we could instead show some
 placeholder text such as '(no title)' which we currently show on the post
 list page when a post has a blank title? What do you think?
