Authors should always provide a 'title' child element to the outermost
'svg' element within a stand-alone SVG document. The 'title' child
element to an 'svg' element serves the purposes of identifying the
content of the given SVG document fragment. Since users often consult
documents out of context, authors should provide context-rich titles.

It seems gnuplot should be adding such a title at the outermost level as
I suggested doing.
