Details:

When the title text is large in the Y-direction, either because the font is
large or the text itself appears on multiple lines, then the text is placed
right on the upper boundary of the plot canvas.  This isn't visually
appealing, and Matlab does a better job of leaving a small gap.  Octave does
leave a gap between the bottom of the title text and the plot axes, so this
padding can be coded.

Sample code to reproduce:


close all
hax = gca;
box on;
ht = title ("Hello World", "fontsize", 60);
