With the line
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
added to an autoopen macro, the title appears correctly in all document
windows here in Word 2003 and has done since Word 2000. I take the point
about very long path names if default system paths are retained, but as I
have my data files on a separate drive with "My Documents" directly off the
root of that drive, the sub folders don't go deep enough to reach the end of
the available space.
