Comment:
In neither section 4.2.1 or 4.8.2 is the reason for leaving out the title in
an iframe srcdoc clarified. Is this because it&apos;s inherited from the parent?
Because it&apos;s irrelevant? What does document.title return in this case?

Status: Did Not Understand Request
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: It&apos;s basically irrelevant, yeah... to the user, the &lt;iframe&gt; in this case doesn&apos;t really provide another document, it&apos;s just part of the parent document. It&apos;s not so much that the title inherits, so much as that the question of the title isn&apos;t really interesting in this case.

I&apos;m not really sure how to express this in the spec&apos;s tone... if you think it&apos;d be useful information in the spec, do you have any suggestions for how to phrase it?

(document.title returns the empty string, that&apos;s defined in the section on document.title, as for any document without a title element)</thetext>
