Description
When I edit for example some files from a java project, it often has files I want to keep open that are one level up or down in my path. However those files rarely have the same name as any files in my current path.
It would be nice (and space-saving) if I could toggle the relative path part of the tab title on and off in the config file. If two files with the same name happens to be open those could show the path to identify them.
(I looked around and didn't see an option for this, but maybe I'm not using the correct search terms)

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the tab-title rendering and configuration handling, then trace how open-file names and paths are displayed. Done means a configuration option can hide relative paths normally while showing enough path information to distinguish duplicate filenames.
