What could be a useful link title? The name is already visible as link text, and the description might be too long. I don’t see a need for title attributes.

Nothing to stop you having the tag name as both link text and as the title attribute text?

It is quite bad in terms of accessibility: ​http://www.rnib.org.uk/professionals/webaccessibility/wacblog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?id=38

@helen sure, sometimes loosing sight of accessibility is easily done. Thanks for pointing that out!
