Hello,
(i'm on debian stretch, i use pcmanfm v1.2.5)
i develop and use a tool to switch between windows depending on the window name.
In PCManFM, i didn't found any way to name the window which is autonamed on the current directory.

Currently, xwininfo | grep "Window id" returns :
xwininfo: Window id: 0x1400003 "/home/foo"

My tool can work only if i could setup PCManFM to have the following result (or any other unique name).
xwininfo: Window id: 0x1400003 "PCManFM - /home/foo"

Many programs like ' lxterminal -T ' or 'thunar' (which name it '/home/foo - File Manager') or 'firefox' have a specific title or an option to set it I think it will provide a better user expérience to have a "<working directory=""> - PCManFM" in the window name.

Thank you for this super file manager.
Have a nice day.
