Related: #18061 (comment) Removing this attribute would cause the LinkControl link previews to no longer show the title associated with a link. However, as I mentioned in the linked comment, this seems like a problem that needs to be addressed generally for all LinkControl, and not be made a responsibility of individual blocks. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The code is good and the block is unaffected other than not setting titles on links. LGTM!

@aduth there are some conflicts here apparently because of the new linting updates in master. Everything else is good to go. |

Thanks @draganescu . I've force-pushed a rebased branch, so it should be all clear now. |

This pull request seeks to remove the
titleattribute from the Navigation Link block.For more context, refer to #19735, which includes additional resources for why we should be avoiding the
titleattribute for links.Note: To disambiguate, the Navigation Link block will still handle a
titlefrom a suggestion in theLinkControlinput that it renders. From what I can tell, this is used to assign a default text label of the link. I expect thatLinkControlwill still continue to offer atitlevalue when the selected link changes. This is consistent from what is reported by the search results endpoint and can be useful for these sorts of scenarios in using e.g. a post title. This is not to be confused with thetitleHTML attribute, which we should seek to avoid foraanchor tags.There is not expected to need to be a deprecation here, since the title was used in the dynamic server-side rendering and not in the saved static markup of the block.
