Terminal: WSL tab not overwritten by tabTitle

Created on 9 Dec 2019  路  1Comment  路  Source: microsoft/terminal

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.476]

Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.7.3382.0

Any other software?
Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS

Steps to reproduce

Open a new WSL tab

Expected behavior

Tab title is overwritten by the string specified in setting
"tabTitle" : "foo"

Actual behavior

Tab title is not overwritten, still showing the long string of the directory.
I have seen the 'tabTitle' string works in cmd and powershell, however I only use Windows Terminal with WSL. When I open a new tab for WSL, I can see the process that initially the tab name was 'foo', after a few milliseconds the tab title was overwritten again by the long directory string. Anyway to to make the tabTitle work for WSL?
