wizard displays a welcome and goodbye message on the first and last page using this.title, http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/toolkit/content/widgets/wizard.xml#338. wizard.title uses document.title instead of the attr. This poses two problems: - the grammar of the window title is a different than the one in the welcome message. I would assume that most locales use the same grammar for the welcome and goodbye messages, so using one word for both ain't so bad. This is somewhat calling for a separate string for the document.title and wizard.title in the markup. Anyway, the IRC discussion in #l10n lead to a number of odd scenarios here. - I create a CreateFooWizard right now, and to be nice, I adjust the document.title to include the project name. In the window title, "foo - Application Wizard" looks cool, but "Welcome to the foo - Application Wizard" is just yac.
Summary: <wizard/> should use it's own title and not document.title for message → <wizard/> should use its own title and not document.title for message
This may or may be not the same as bug 269024 but I'm sure it's somehow related with it.
What's stopping you from overriding the label on the first and last pages?
