Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnochm

GnoCHM window title violates Gnome HIG:

http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/windows-primary.html.en#primary-window-titles
===
Use Filename as the window title for document-based applications. Do not use the full pathname, as the filename alone is easier to distinguish amongst other open window titles, for example on the window list.
…
While document names are most pertinent to users, we understand that application developers may want to increase recognition of their application. If you plan to include your application's name in the title of a primary window, use the following format: Document Name - Application Name. This will ensure that the document name appears in limited space situations such as the system window list.
[ Including the application name in the title of a document-based application is not recommended. ]
===

GnoCHM uses "CHM Viewer - Document name" window title.
