My workflow consists in working with several Dolphin instances at once, each
having about 6 tabs of split views.
Upgrading to Dolphin 23.04.2 made the tabs captions unusable due to too much
info.
Before that, the title was the name of the current directory in the currently
selected view (out of the two).
I have used that to go to the right tab.

OBSERVED RESULT

Now, the above changed and displays both current directories in the split
views, the not selected one being enclosed in parentheses. That leads to
partial text rendering due to little space in the tab handler and the left view
directory name is always first, so the right one is not rendered anymore there
- in my case, with 6 tabs open.

EXPECTED RESULT

While this is nice, although I would have chosen a different way to highlight
the current view selection, it makes truly difficult my workflow now.

To conceal both ways, I would add a setting to have the new way, but also the
old way available.
I need the old way back, it so clear and usable!
