Description

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Sometimes, people open a bug report or a package issue, but mods have a more accurate title in mind related to what the issue actually describes, or may be sometimes, people forget to update the default issue title and just fill out the issue form and submit it. Examples:

/cc @jedieaston @ItzLevvie @OfficialEsco @denelon @Trenly

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Over to @trenly, he can update .github/fabricbot.json to add a command to set the title, if the mentioned people agree.
