The best place for this is the ViewProperties class which provides an interface
that the ViewContainer classes (the tab widgets) use to get the text, icon and
state of a tab.  SessionController inherits from ViewProperties and checks for
changes in the current directory/program etc. of a session in the
SessionController::snapshot() method which then updates the session's title. 
The snapshot() method is called, with a short delay, after any input to the
terminal.  

So, you could add a new signal currentDirChanged(QString) to ViewProperties and
emit that from SessionController::snapshot()

In Konsole::Part you can listen for this signal by connecting to it in
Part::activeViewChanged(SessionController*) - the same as for the
titleChanged() signal.
