'''Example:'''
{{{
function testme() {
	var_dump( get_the_title( 99999 ) );
}

function filterme( $title ) {
	return ""[$title]"";
}

add_action( 'wp_head', 'testme' );
add_filter( 'the_title', 'filterme' );
}}}

Is there a reason for this odd functionality?"	defect (bug)	new	normal	Awaiting Review	Template	3.1	normal		has-patch
