Comment (by shulard):

 Maybe it's just that the `sanitize_title` function is sometimes used to
 generate an id or class from a string to ensure that non authorized
 characters are not used... Maybe useful only when generating attributes
 from inputed text.

 strip tags, removes accents and replace special characters, right? I'm not
 really sure what you mean with id or class attribute value.
