This is such a basic thing I would've figured.

Here's something you can do in that regard already:

javascript:document.title="whatever";document.reca lc();

Unfortunately it doesn't update the title we see in the Window or the Tab
but you can check on your alias using F12. (Hint: Look at the title of the
Developer Tools window when you do that.)
