From /etc/skel/.bashrc:

# If this is an xterm set the title to user@host:dir
case "$TERM" in
xterm*|rxvt*)
    PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"'
    ;;
*)
    ;;
esac

This sets the window title to the contents of the variable. And you can 
configure konsole, to show the same contents of the window title, in the 
corresponding tab. I suppose it will be the same or pretty similar for zsh.

Greetings.
