The OP explains *why* the 1.x way of doing things *sucks*. If you
*do* have a title (which some programs automagically assign without
prompt to the user) and you want to see the actual filename, then you
can't see what the filename is.

You're right, you can't see the file name. Oh wait, except for the URL
bar, or by going in a removing the title in the properties menu.
All platforms that OOo runs on (or at least the ones I know) support
long file names, so the easiest way to see the title for all document
also in OOo2.0 is making title and file name the same. ;-)
The only case where I really prefer the title is when I am editing a
spreadsheet or a text document (that will probably become a PDF) that I
will put on the web, because the file name is full of underscores. I
just don't like the way it looks. I also don't like seeing the file
extension in the title bar, I think it is ugly.
This of course is my preference, and not how OOo should necessarily be.
I just don't understand two things:
1) What is so bad about having an option?
2) What is the point of the title property if it isn't displayed?
Have a good one.
