Issue Summary
Some of the blocks provided by modules don't show their titles. Specifying a title in the blocks configuration makes no difference either. Just add a few blocks from contributed modules to see what I mean.

I just created a similar issue in the Boost issue queue. Whose issue queue should these belong in? Is there any guidelines that a module has to conform to to get the title visible?

Marked the other issue duplicate of this for now. We can reopen it if admin module says it is an issue with the other module.
For reference here is mherchel's screenshot of the issue:

And here is the duplicate issue: #967670: Admin Block Titles Not Visible in Admin Module Toolbar

If the block was created via Views module (Exposed forms as block) - titles do not shows too

The problem, at least in the case of the Boost blocks, is that those blocks don't have titles out of the box. So obviously the admin module wouldn't know what to display. The attached patch does a database check if the block title is blank, so you can at least set the block title in its /admin/build/blocks configuration settings.
This patch is for the 6.x-2.0 version. I'll post another patch for the dev version. Let me know if I did the patches wrong (first timer...).
Edit: Forgot to mention these patches are of the admin.module file, ie: patch < admin-blocktitles-963014.patch admin.module

And here's the same patch, but for the Dev version...
