I know, I know (after all, I analysed that in another mail). I was
just trying to reverse-engineer how things are working (by default)
on my Debian box.
In any case, here it's not vim cleaning up its title after itself,
but rather the shell's PS1 restoring it at the next prompt after
vim.
I just hoped this data point might help you pin-pointing your
problem (BTW: vim could only restore the term's title if there
were... an escape sequence to either query the title or tell the
term to save/restore it.
As to how to get xterm's [1] window title, I think you might
have to fool around with xprop. Here [2] is some example code.
Have fun :)
[1] I'm always talking xterm. I guess that this parts are
pretty similar (if not identical) to other X based terminal
emulators.
