Description

Describe the new feature

I am using a border-only theme for xfce windows manager which do not display the title bar and the action button. Since the opened db filename is shown in the title bar I do not have any clue on what database I am working on (I usually work with very similar dbs: testing and production). It would be better if the filename is displayed on the status bar or in any bar on the bottom of the window.

Does this feature exist in another product or project? Please provide a link

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the main-window code that updates the opened database filename in the title bar, then inspect the status-bar UI. Done means the filename is visible in a bottom or status area when the title bar is unavailable.
