Put output to window title

[Taitava]

Like the statusbar, Obsidian's window title could be a nice place to store some short output text.

However, one problem is that Obsidian overwrites the title quite frequently, e.g. when switching from one open note to another.

• Perhaps one (ugly?) solution could be to listen for title changes and revert them? Not good, I guess, as it can lead to an infinite loop. https://stackoverflow.com/a/29540461/2754026
• Another plugin seems to tackle title changes by hooking into different events in Obsidian: https://github.com/jplattel/open-note-to-window-title/blob/9e4537a9bb18c44c8ef88ef2b483c1a7d8e14d33/main.ts#L146-L177

A {{window_title}} variable

There could be a variable for retrieving the original window title, so that a shell command can prefix, postfix or modify the existing title without completely replacing it.
