Comment (by davidakennedy):

 I like this idea lot. I see this as a common request from users.

 From @westonruter
 > Looking at this, it seems perhaps a theme mod should be used instead of
 option, but it's a tough call. Is this a setting that should persist with
 users when they switch themes? We don't do this for Custom Logo, though in
 the case of the logo a reason for this is that themes define different
 sizes. There wouldn't be, in theory, a difference from theme to theme for
 the title/tagline toggles.

 Yeah, this is a tough call. I'd to see us go global option whenever it
 makes sense because that's easier on users after a theme switch. But this
 feels like it could be something that themers will do different from theme
 to theme, based on design. Some existing themes may hide the site
 description for example to fit better with the design. So theme mod feels
 better to me.

 The implementation feels pretty good to me.

 I don't think we'd need to implement it in all default themes, maybe just
 the current ones packaged with new installs: Seventeen, Sixteen and
 Fifteen.
