Agree, but I guess the idea Thomas found in vim might be quite
reliable and unbloated:

  [quote]
  It looks at environment variables WINDOWID and DISPLAY and
  connects to the X server using xlib. Then it gets and sets the
  title using the xlib functions XGetWMName and XSetWMName.
  [/quote]

Of course we can only use it when we ./configure --with-x, but I think
it's not a big problem. I could implement this if you think it's good.

Welcome back. BTW could you close applied or rejected patches in BTS,
please?
