What would the document window show as its title before and after the 
redraw -- the display filename or the data filename?

In the cases I've had the problem, it was always the wrong data 
displayed for the filename in the document window's title bar. Redraw 
did not correct it the times I tried it (which was not every time I 
encountered the bug). I didn't save or print the files, so I don't 
really know what was *really* behind the displayed data.
