This isn't a normative issue. Yes, everyone *ought to* correctly label the pdfs
they create, but unfortunately most users simply DO NOT. Do you think most
creators of pdf documents are going to change because of some terrible
non-configurable feature of a pdf viewer they've never heard of, such as
Okular? (It IS a great viewer, by the way.)

The option to display the filename needs to be configurable. I'm even surprised
that anybody at all would rather have Okular display the pdf title instead.
