Raspberry Pi OS • Programs run remotely using ssh -X don't show the hostname in the title bar when using Wayland

Scenario :

If I ssh -X to a remote / headless pi that has full Pi OS installed on it, I am able to run programs remotely but have them display on my local machine.

For example :

Code:

ssh -x remotepi.lanpcmanfm &
And the file browser appears on my local machine, but running on the remote machine.

Under X11, this remote program would have the hostname in the window title bar. (remotepi).

Under Wayland, this doesn't appear.

If you've several similar windows open on different remote computers displaying locally, it can get very confusing.

Is there a way to get Wayland to add the hostname to the window title?

thanks
