Thank you, that sounds reasonable.
One problem I noticed with this is that if  a page has
a (:notitle:) directive, the title (as page name)
still appears in the <title> tag.

To suppress injection of that I had to extend the (:notitle:) Markup
function in my skin, using a new variable $HTMLTitle in the template:

   <title>$HTMLTitle</title>

and adding to skin.php:

global $HTMLTitle, $WikiTitle;
$HTMLTitle = $WikiTitle.' - '.PageVar($pagename, '$Title');

## Markup (:notitle:)
Markup('notitle','directives','/\\(:notitle:\\)/e', 
  "NoTitle2(\$pagename)");
function NoTitle2($pagename) {
  global  $HTMLTitle, $WikiTitle;
  SetTmplDisplay('PageTitleFmt', 0);
  $HTMLTitle = $WikiTitle;
}


Then it appears to work well.
