pinentry's new window titles could be more (less?) informative

Right, same here.  Complete agreement.

I mostly agree, except that the current titlebar text is so
over-detailed that it's not in any way informational.  This titlebar
text appears to be a straight-up auditing tool giving you excruciatingly
detailed information about the invoker.

If the titlebar text is intended to be UI polish (which, in its current
form, it does not appear to be) then this is a misimplementation we can
fix with adjusted text.

If the titlebar text is intended to be an audit tool (as it currently
appears to be), then this is a misfeature we should remove.

So let me stake out the first question: what's it supposed to be, polish
or auditing?
