Adding -hackers for consideration in the Commitfest.Thanks!David J.>>>Original request by meWhen executing a query using \watch in psql the first execution of the query includes "Title is [...]" when \pset title is in use. Subsequent executions do not. Once that first display goes off-screen the information in the title is no longer readily accessible. If using \watch for a long-running monitoring query it can be helpful to incorporate some context information into the title.---------- Forwarded message ----------
