Description

Slides without titles currently don't show up on the outline. @jjallaire had mentioned that this worked in v0.2.340, so title-less slides not showing up in the outline might be a regression. I think we had discussed that a title would be constructed for them based on the initial text the slide can find and put something like "Slide 3" if not.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Begin by tracing outline generation for slides without titles and reproduce the missing-entry case; done means title-less slides receive a title based on their initial text or a fallback such as “Slide 3” in the outline.
