Summary of the new feature/enhancement

As of now, it shows title for each tab as something like C:\...\powershell.exe It will be useful to have a way to name each tab so that it becomes easy to recognize.

I think, the current names are to long too. I can display about 1,5 card tabs in small (default size) window. Custom will be great, but maybe cutting names will be good too? F.e. in, Ubuntu Terminal, displaying only last folder name, e.g. "System32" instead of "/mnt/c/WINDOWS/System32" 🤔
