squiggle feature request: show title in "go" menue

Hello Thomas and Cameron,

I have a small feature request:

I work a lot with Batik-Squiggle and work on different
files. Therefore 
I use the "Go" menu often to navigate between
different files in the 
history.

Almost all of my files are named "index.svg" -
therefore I can't easily 
distinguish which of the "index.svg" is the one
I am interested in.

Would it be possible to display the content of the title
element instead 
of the filename in this menu (if present) and otherwise the
filename (if 
title isn't present)? Or as an alternative display the
title (if 
present) and the filename in brackets.

Would this be relatively easy to implement? I see you
already display 
the content of the title element in the window title bar.

Andreas

   This would be a fairly significant change just because
currently
our history file doesn't include the title so the format on
disk would
have to change.  However I've added the full URL as a
tool-tip on the
menu item.  This is probably a useful thing to have in any
case.

   If you could file the title in 'history' menu as an RFE
(request 
for extension) in bugzilla that will make sure that it
isn't forgotten,
as I think that it probably the right way to go in the
future.

yes, thats useful in any case. I can confirm that this
tooltip works. It 
helps me distinguishing my files.

Thanks for adding this feature.
