which page they are on, instead of only the beginning of the title being
visible, preventing switching between different documentation tabs
quickly.

This change was not generalised to other pages as the need is smaller on
other pages. For example on the home page, seeing "...open source
database" is not better than seeing "PostgreSQL: The world's...".


Interesting -- I had no idea this could be done :)

Thinking about it. I agree with the comment about the home page, but I wonder if that is the *only* case where it actually makes sense the way it is now, and that *all* other pages would be better off with this switch?

Can you (or someone else) think of another counterexample?
