This cannot currently be changed. Can you tell me what you would like to 
change it to?

I have a note on the TODO about introducing disambiguation when multiple 
tabs have the same name (e.g. index.html), so if this is basically your 
goal, it might work better as a native feature (since always showing 
“disambiguation” would take up a lot of space).

Btw: You _can_ give documents a custom display name, but currently only 
via `mate` when they are opened, but this display name is used beyond 
just the tab titles, I assume you want to keep the original display name 
in other locations.
