Use different filter for the_title() and the_title_attribute()

[zourbuth]

Since the_title() and the_title_attribute() function use the same function get_the_title() to retrieve the title, I think there is no way to add the_title filter only for the_title() function.

the_title_attribute() is designed to be the same as the_title(), with the exception of sanitizing it for an attribute (which includes, for example, stripping markup).

It makes sense that they run the same underlying filters. If you don't want to affect an attribute, you should probably not use the_title_attribute().
