Thanks, I was not aware of that.

AFAIR Org already allows invalid HTML document to be produced when the

With the new patch, wouldn't the title, that was not intended to be shown,
still show up in places like browser tabs and bookmarks? I have to yet try
it.

So I was going to suggest to set title tag to empty string "" or something
generic like "HTML". I don't think I would use the title:nil option. But if
one needs to hide the title, I think it should not leak out of the Org
document.

The right approach IMO is not printing the h1-title block, as in the

attached patch.

That would be fine if that prevents the title from showing up in browser
tabs, etc.

(In general generating the title block should be moved to something like
