Interviewed by CNN on 19/01/2013 17:53, Tom told the world:

Well, this change in behavior was documented in bug 254139:
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=254139>

Apparently this change has been requested for years, and Mozilla was the
only major browser who did *not* do this. The reasoning is that in most
cases the page <title> field is more descriptive than the filename --
that's particularly true in large sites with automatically-generated pages.

There isn't a pref to turn it off, but Gavin Sharp made an extension for
people who prefer the old way (linked from Comment #71 on the bug thread):
