 port could make use of the xterm title to provide some indicator what is
 currently doing. When using verbose or debug mode a lot of code will
 scroll by making it difficult to see what is actually being run at the
 moment.

 Such titles can be set by writing to stdout with special escape sequences,
 such as:
 {{{
 echo -ne "\033]0;Foo Bar\007"
 }}}

 This will be implemented in the branch [source:branches/xterm-titles].
