I'm not sure this is a bug, it may be that I am requesting an enhancement.

When I choose to rename a saved tab (in a set of tabs) from the bookmark
manager, the old name is what I see in the tab itself, but when I rename it,
only the name in the manager itself changes. I would think this should also
change the tab name.

One problem this causes is:

I have a set of tabs that all begin with the same thing, since they are separate
pages of a documentation set. For example,

tcl/tk manual page - string
tcl/tk nanual page - file

These come from the html title statement. 

I want to have a set of these set as tabs for quick reference. However, all the
tabs (when I have 6 or 7 of them) only show the leftmost N characters, which in
this case are all the same. So, I figured that renaming them to just the unique
part would work. However, it does not.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to bookmark manager (once you've bookmarked a set of tabs)
2. find a bookmark you want to rename and rename it
3. 

Actual Results:  
only the name in the bookmark manager changes, the tab name remains the same,
from the title in the html

Expected Results:  
the tab title itself should change to what you renamed the tab to
