Is org-publish-find-title an internal function? If so, expecting the
user to be responsible for initializing the cache is acceptable.

But, is there some "external function" to find the title of an org file?
I couldn't find any, and hence resorted to using org-publish-find-title.

How about initializing the cache before the execution of the preparation
function? I am calling org-publish-find-title in the preparation
function, and this would address my use case. If you think this is a
good idea, I can come up with a patch.

Else, we can close this issue. It's not really a major problem.
