 1. Open wp-admin > Posts > All Posts
 2. Hover over a post then click Edit

 RESULT:
 The web page's `<title>` tag is just "Edit Post ‹ ''your blog name'' —
 WordPress". There is no indication of what page you are editing. This
 makes it harder to later locate the tab in the browser, makes bookmarking
 posts you regularly edit harder, and the other problems of a poor web page
 title.

 EXPECTED RESULT:
 It would be nice to see part of the post's title in the web page's
 `<title>`, e.g. "Edit Post 'Britney Spears… evar' ‹ ''your blog name'' —
 WordPress"

 VERSION: 5.6 in Firefox Nightly, running Linux on server and browser,
 using Gutenberg plug-in 9.7.0.

 (This could be a bug in the Gutenberg editor rather than WordPress;
 there's code in `src/wp-admin/edit.php` to set the title:
 {{{#!php
 $title = $post_type_object->labels->name;
 }}}
 but I'm not sure what it does.)
