Yes, that's intentional as mentioned in the review request. The rationale:

1). Be consistent with other KDE applications

2). The "- Konsole" suffix could be useful for some users. See bug 179142
comment #5 for a use case.

3). KDE3 konsole had it, too. OK, this is just an excuse :)

It does make the titlebar a little more crowded and might be a distraction.
However, I think its impact is limited since it appears at the end instead of
the start .... Of course, that is just my personal feeling(remember I do not
notice or even show the titlebar in daily work), so I'm fine with reverting the
change if enough users dislike it or convince me the benefit dose not pay off.

Side note: 

The complete titlebar format in KDE3 konsole was: "window title - tab title -
Konsole". Quite crowded.
