Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 I was under impression that the issue here is the hardcoded
 `style="visibility:hidden"` (according to the description).

 DFW title doesn't have that hardcoded style (but is still controlled by
 `wptitlehint()` JS function): [[BR]]
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.4.1/wp-includes/class-wp-
 editor.php#L679

 So I thought that [attachment:21458.patch] would make it more consistent.

 [attachment:21458.2.patch] toggles `.screen-reader-text` instead (the
 change in `wp-admin.dev.css` is to prevent `.screen-reader-text`'s `left:
 -1000em` from being overridden, which causes a visual bug).

 [attachment:21458.3.patch] is an attempt at adding `aria-describedby` (not
 sure if that would work with `style="visibility:hidden"` though).
