See

<http://groups.google.com/groups?q=%22frame+title+is+not+updated+often+enough
 %22&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=200112060244.fB62ilP00564

Google doesn't seem to have the rest of the thread. After looking at
the code, RMS said that special-casing the column number update for
the frame title (i.e., to make it work like in the mode line) would
be a lot of work.

HTH,
