I only noticed that the news already had made it into that thread after posting here, sorry (the disadvantage of only receiving a daily digest ...).

EDIT
For those who are as lazy as me I wrote a little Greasemonkey user script which looks up the title of links to drupal.org. The script can be found at http://www.nakohdo.de/downloads/drupal_thread_title.user.js
