Which kind of usage are you talking about in this suggestion? If you're talking about the xterm title, I don't see why this is desirable. Always using the new names seems better. If you're talking about the frame's name, what you would specify to switch frames, then I don't see why this is desirable. Always using the F name seems better. Is it some other sort of usage that you're thinking of?
