Currently this module provides 2 options:
[]Automatically generate the title and hide the title field
[]Automatically generate the title if the title field is left empty

I think there should be a 3rd option to generate the title automatically, but then on subsequent edit of the node allow the user to expand a collapsed title field set and edit the node title if they have manage content permissions.

There are occasions where it makes sense to allow a user to override an automatically generated node title, and this would offer an option that would still most of the time result in an automatically generated node title.

Title: Add 3rd option: "Automatically generate the title and allow user to edit" » Add 3rd option: "Automatically generate (and hide) the title and allow user to edit (not hidden on edit)"

I dont think this is an exact duplicate. #426852: New option: "Automatically generate the title if the title field is left empty and hide the title field" wants to generate a title if it is empty on creation and then forever hide the title.

I think this request is to auto generate a title if empty (like hide it on node creation node/add), but then allow it to be edited later (like on node edit).
