So the use case is that you have a large number of eww buffers, but you
want to find a particular based on the title of the web page being
displayed in that buffer?

I'm not sure that's generally useful enough to include -- do people use
`C-u M-x eww' a lot?

Some code comments:

>  "Switches to an eww buffer with selected title."
>  (interactive
>   (list
>    (let ((com-table))

> 	     'com-table

Use `push'.

> 		     (propertize (concat " " (buffer-name))

>      (completing-read "Eww buffer title: " com-table))))

Use an alist instead of propertising a string.

There may also be several buffers with the same title, I guess, in which
case this wouldn't allow you to choose either?
