[uf-new] Proposal: change haudio title to htitle.

In my experience, from a practical point of view, it's not really  
needed - even if no microformats had any property names in common,  
parsers still need to take care over microformat opacity due to  
situations like:

     <div class="vcard">
       <div class="agent vcard">
         <span class="title">...</span>
       </div>
     </div>

And it doesn't seem to have proved a problem for 'url', which is  
defined fairly differently in RFC 2426 (vCard) and RFC 2445  
(iCalendar). 'contact' also has different meanings in hCalendar and  
XFN (though of course, one is a class and one a rel).

This seems to be a solution to a problem which doesn't exist.

A better issue to debate would be how to resolve problem that XMDP  
knows nothing about nesting, making it a blunt tool to define the  
meanings of properties within compound microformats.
