I'll have to retest with NVDA (and someone else will have to speak to
Window-Eyes), but it never has been read when I've used JAWS. Though the
last time I did test this, title wasn't read by default. I'm willing to
admit I'm wrong if someone else has more current info.

"Title is a possibility, but you will have to instruct screen access
software users to (and possibly how to) adjust their preferences to read
this attribute as it is not a default in most programs."

I thought TITLE was not read by default on links, but it is on form fields
like radio buttons.
