And it's seems to be in use amongst all Ahlus sunnah as a title of respect for the scholars, but maybe I missed a minority opinion?

I think you must mean the Ahlus Sunnah of the Indian subcontinent because I have been to Saudi Arabia, the Gulf, Jordan and never heard this term used in regards to scholars. I am not saying it is harram to use it or anything like that, I just think it is funny when someone calls themselves 'Mawlana' or says 'Yes I am a Mawlana' and Allah knows best.
