While that's cutsy! It does not address the issue at all. First off the 
issue is with the title bar - not ssh. IOW the terminals could be local 
and not using SSH. Secondly, looking at the first line provided by that 
cutsty URL:

Ah, not on my rxvt (nor cmd) windows it ain't!

I think you are assuming a specific - unnamed - ssh client. That's not 
the case here...

Again, this has nothing to do with the OP's post.

None of the rest of your cutsy post applies either.

Thanks for being so... helpful...
