Tab Titles currently elide right. Generally the more useful information is at the right
side of the string--even more so when full paths are being used.

- No change when tab titles don't get elided
- When tabs show the full path and titles are elided, they're now useful:
- When tabs don't show the full path and are elided, they're elided on the other side which seems maybe a tiny bit better, but at least no worse:

Seems to make more sense for when the full path is shown, but my intuition is that right elision is more useful when it's just the folder name being shown.
And looking at my folders I also get the same vague impression. Example: I have a folder called "Comparative Analysis" and another one called "Discourse Analysis". I need the first word or at least bits of it to distinguish between the folders, whereas having "...Analysis" wouldn't work out.

Can you elide up to the forward slash and not after unless there is no room? Like this:
I just think that looks better.

Not easily, I'm afraid. Maybe material for a follow-up patch.
