This is a feature request. I would like to see the filename instead of the document title (read from file header) in the window title bar. Or maybe show both of them in the caption or just make it configurable.

Currently Okular 0.6.1 shows only the title of PDF files, not the filename. For me that's very confusing. Most of the PDF files you'll find in the web are not correctly labeled. If you open them into okular and if you often switch between these windows you get crazy, because you cannot identify them by the window caption. You only see captions like "thesis.dvi" (even if the filename is called "glossary.pdf"), "Title", ...

The problem is, that you cannot change the title of a PDF file without hacking the file. I wouldn't say anything against it if you would be easily able to change it (as you can change filenames).
