Expose it as an X11 property which gets read by the window manager/desktop shell and applies a semantic way to highlight that it's modified.</p></pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;"><p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">The API dox of KMainWindow::setCaption(const QString &caption, bool modified) claims that the flag modified specifies "whether the document is modified. This displays an additional sign in the title bar, usually "*"."
See http://api.kde.org/frameworks-api/frameworks5-apidocs/kxmlgui/html/classKMainWindow.html#aa78364d5eeb1c1f5bd333c733378741d</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Currently that is not true. Instead a warning is shown on the console:
"QWidgetPrivate::setWindowModified_helper: QWidget::setWindowModified: The window title does not contain a '[*]' placeholder"</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">When 'KDialog::setCaption(QString, bool)' was moved to 'KMainWindow::setCaption(QString, bool)' for kf5, it was dumped that the old code also called ' makeStandardCaption(...)' which would add a custom "[modified]" string if the 'modified' flag was set. See http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdeui/html/kdialog_8cpp_source.html#l00475</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Now KMainWindow uses the 'windowModified' property of 'QWidget', and if doing so, the windowtitle needs a placeholder where to put the modified marker, by the form of "[*]". See https://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qwidget.html#windowTitle-prop</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">This patch proposes to comply to the API and to add that placeholder, so the method behaves as expected. It does not use "[modified]" flag like the kde4libs variant of the code did, but by using the Qt placeholder perhaps can even integrate better into the platform (not sure if there is a hook yet).</p></pre>
