Please not - I use to customize these titles frequently via Shift + blue button to label my to-do notes in a world. Also, as I have already mentioned, IMHO this is only a secondary concept and it is not our goal to convert Workspaces into a file editor. (I think we even have a separate tool for this.)

Doesn't this raise just another issue? These menus are hardly customizable, and not tidy at all at the moment. Anyway, configuration via a menu is hard ... :-)

Best,
Christoph

You might solve the menu item width issue by putting the filename int the window title, ie.

X Workspace (saved to /home/saneOSuser/willikins/documents/myworkingworkspace.text)

Perhaps using 'apended' instead of 'saved' as appropriate?

Also, surely these menu items ought to be in the menu of the text morph, not the window menu?
