Description
Hi! On a project I'm developing I've had the need of automatically generate the title (if the title field is left empty) and keep the title field ever hidden.
I've added the option to the module and I've created a patch. If you want you can integrate it on the module.
It is useful to automatically generate the node title only when the node is created. The node title will not be editable by the user and it won't be updated anymore.

Perfect, exactly what I was looking for!
The patch works great.

Oops - I spoke slightly too soon. The patch works great except that with the new option selected, choosing "Update automatic nodetitles" from the administer content page (admin/content/node) will not regenerate the selected titles.

Some suggestion?

I think it's gonna be confusing if we add yet another slightly different method.
