When replacing the title of a node type, the new title field will have its "Help Text" (internally: description) set to "A field replacing node title."---I think in 99.995% of cases, this is NOT what you want your users to see as an explanation of the title input.

I'd vote for simply setting no default description, as the the legacy title input does not have one, either (and it seems hard to come up with a generically useful text).

Of course, one can always edit the field settings to remove the description, but seeing as I (and likely, everyone) have to do this for every title, it seems a few clicks that could be saved ...

Yes, that is exactly what I wanted to report.

Please, let the help text be empty.

Agree, this might seem trivial but novice admins are put off by this. "Node title? What's the hell's that?". Better left blank.

This should be fixed in the latest dev.
