            Bug ID: 309763
          Severity: normal
           Version: 2.8.5
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
           Summary: Title length is ~74 characters.
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: kde49534 at rainslide.net
          Hardware: Slackware Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: konsole

The maximum length I can set the title of the window to is 74 characters, and
the first 74 characters at that. This is not good when it's showing the current
full directory path (%w) and I'm in a deep tree. I think it should be allowed
to expand to the maximum size of the whole title bar, and start replacing the
leftmost characters with an ellipsis if it goes bigger than that.

Note this is not the tab title, but the window title.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter a deep tree: cd
/tmp/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890
2. Observe the window title:
"kdeuser at localhost:/tmp/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567"
3. Change to another deeply rooted directory: cd ../foo
Actual Results:  
Observe the window title:
"kdeuser at localhost:/tmp/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567"

Expected Results:  
Window title:
"kdeuser at localhost:/tmp/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/1234567890/foo"

Some names have been changed to protect the innocent.
