Bug: Inconsistency in regard to titlestring and statusline.
Elaboration:
:help titlestring says:
When this option contains printf-style '%' items, they will
be expanded according to the rules used for 'statusline'.
However, my ingenuity does not enable me to see how the formatting
supported by statusline for '%' can be used to generate the default
output of title which is:
filename [+=-] (path) - VIM
For example, '%m' outputs '[+]' or '[-]' rather than just '+' or '-';
and '%r' outputs '[RO]' (or nothing, if buffer is writable) rather than
just '=' (or nothing).
So there is an inconsistency in regard to how the same piece of
information is displayed by the default mechanisms in the title and in
the statusline.
Perhaps the fix might be that when %m is used in the titlestring, it
appears in the title without surrounding square brackets; and when %r
is used in the titlestring, it appears as = (or nothing).
Anyway, I noticed the above while trying to ensure that the path in the
title always showed up in a canonical form.
