You speak as though the title will be chosen without any regard for the context it's used in, which I rather doubt. Wouldn't people pick the title for a \watch query so that it fits? (In any case they could force the issue by including a \n in their title...)
True that.
I don't have a strong opinion either way. Having a single, condensed, title line would be nice though using two in order to not be cryptic has its own appeal.
