Okay, I took at stab at it. The code is in the master branch of my fork:
https://github.com/khughitt/biopython/blob/75be77cf28d376329577adf5ec41a8880b7faf5c/Bio/SeqIO/FastaIO.py#L73

I wasn't sure what the best choices are for id/name so for now I stored the
gid in id (and also in the annotations), and the accession as name. Any
suggestions?

I also haven't written any test code yet. Should I parameterize
TitleFunctions.simple_check and multi_check, or is there another approach
you would advise?
