Did you ever hear back or find a workaround Eric?

Also be aware that if the title of the tab you are in is in italics, you can double click the tab - then it will become 'normal' font text and will NOT be replaced.
Making a change in a file will also change the title from italics to normal and stop it being replaced in the same way.
Tabs were driving me insane till I worked this out. Dont know if there's a keyboard shortcut for the double click?
