🔥Netlify CMS | Remove the title field from the image widget

(Checked by Brady)
Hi Myself,

As per the email including @pierssinclairssw,@bradystroud, @tiagov8, @adamcogan, @theixdev with subject: SSW Rules - Is Title needed for images, the "title" field on the Image widget isn't used and should be removed.

• Investigate the best option below and implement it

Option A: Create a custom widget (recommended) 🚀

Create a custom widget that is basically a copy of the default Netlify CMS image widget without the "Title" field.

Pros:

• This could be quicker
• Allows for more customization - allowing us the ability to implement @tiagov8's suggestion to change the name of the alt text field to "Figure"

Cons:

• Might require extra work
  • Need to investigate if we can add custom widgets to the markdown widget

Option B: Add an option to hide the title from Netlify CMS📉

Create a pull request with Netlify CMS to add an option to check if title should be used.

Pros:

• Potentially helps the community
• No redundant code

Cons:

• This would require creating a PR to Netlify CMS repo
• This could take more time or not be accepted
• Further customization would require repeating this process

Figure: Title field on the Image Widget

Start by locating the Netlify CMS image widget integration and checking how it is embedded in the markdown widget. Compare the custom-widget and upstream-option approaches described in the issue; done means the image widget no longer displays a Title field while image editing still works.
