All's in the title. Both with 1.5.0 and the current HEAD (with which the screenshot was produced)

title("$\\left(1.234\\right)$")

Yes, I know \left and \right are not necessary here. OTOH some code that generates LaTeX strings (e.g. the uncertainties packages, where I noticed this first) just always use \left and \right as that avoids having to parse the contents to know whether they're needed, which seems fair game.

I put up a fix in #5871, so that it tries to use the regular parens (and the DejaVu ones) when the text inside is close to regular text.
