Hi Robert,
Unfortunately I do not know about a variable that does hold the
title of a page in w3. In w3m there is w3m-current-title.
In w3, all I was able to find is the URL via
(org-view-url t)
If anyone knows the magic incantation to extract the page
title in a w3 buffer, I'd be happy to make it the default
for the link description.
