Currently extensions are forced to have a "contextual" title on their views, otherwise the name of the "home" container gets automatically tacked on to the view title as a prefix. I'm not sure I've really ever understood the value of this broadly (as opt-in it makes sense if your view title needs it), but it creates a far less than ideal experience for users in many cases.

For example, with GitLens, we have 3 "homes" for views -- Source Controls, GitLens, and GitLens Inspect. Views are grouped within these for optimized usage patterns, but users can drag these views out of those "homes" to better suit their needs. But once views get moved out of their home, they are forced to get prefixed.

So for example, if a user wants to drag the File History view out of the GitLens Inspect side bar and into any other, it will end up with a GitLens: prefix. It would be great if extensions could maybe set contextualTitle to null or have some other way to opt out of that behavior.
