The alt/title of the image is pretty visible item, but unfortunately the content editors not always appreciate their importance and go for the least effort - leaving the image title field blank and to the mercy of the usually ugly filename.

That's why I think a global option is needed to use the host node title (if available) as default image title.

Could you explain what this does?

As far as I can tell, it means that if on node 'foo' I attach an image, that new image node is called 'foo 1', then 'foo 2'... etc. Is that right?

If "image title" field is empty, the uploaded attached image node is called "foo" (instead of the filename). If the node "foo" already has 2 attached images, then the new image is called "foo - 3".

How can this be accomplished within D7, as image module is part of core?

That's really out of the scope of this issue... we don't even yet have a plan for an image attach system in D7.
