"write a blog post about the story and submit that instead."

A long comment and a link are probably OK, but if you just want to change the title, you'd probably get accused of blogspam.

I don't know if tpacek meant this instead, but how about writing an article briefly explaining why your title is better and then provide a follow on link to the article.

This has the advantage of getting the right title, getting out a link to the article, and having a quick synopsis of why the title change was made in the first place.
