HTML 4.01 Specification says title applies to all elements but BASE,
BASEFONT, HEAD, HTML, META, PARAM, SCRIPT, TITLE. I think I may have been
the one to add #tootip: way back when I first got started with Seaside, and
looking in my image, I have a bunch of senders to it, easy fix. I think
#title: should be pushed up to tagbrush and #tooltip: removed.
