Title is one of only two mandatory arguments (the other being parent_folder). Besides being used in the naming scheme ([title]_-_[(optional)manga/bind prefix][(optional)suffix].[file extension]), it also:
1) Allows you to save multiple series to the same output folder
2) Becomes the name of the output folder if the user doesn't specify one
So if I made title not mandatory some users may experience problems. My advice is if you don't like title, you can auto rename the files afterwards (I'm sure there are simple scripts already out there to do this, specific to your os), or use @use_original_filenames (you'll still have to specify a title, but it won't be used in the output filenames).

Yeah, that's what usually happened to me too when I see an area I thought would be trimmed. Not much you can do about that automatically... it's too hard for the computer to determine whether that small black line is part of the scan or accidental noise.

Despeckle is dangerous like that. Maybe I can look into selective despeckle (so only perform it on the outer x% of the scan).
