The title is determined by the name clause in big-bang, e.g., 

  (big-bang 0 (to-draw (lambda (x) (text "hello world" 33 'red))) (name "jeeve"))

;; --- 

Otherwise it is impossible to get at the frame that displays the world. It is an instance of a private
locally created class with two possible mixins (mouse and key handlers). 

The request to get access to this frame in some form or another has surfaced 
before. I will put it on my todo list, but I do not know yet how to go about this.
