Another use is when form inputs are presented in a tabular format (see this
form
http://www.nils.org.au/ais/new_forma.html for examples, also any comments on
this form would be appreciated), up until recently I have advocated the use
of the title attribute in this case.

The limitation of the title attribute is that as far as I am aware screen
readers (i have tested on Jaws 4+,HPR 3) that recognise titles, only do so
on "active" elements (links, inputs etc.).
