I've made patch which implement this. It can be found there:
https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/index.php?func=detailpatch&patch_id=879&group_id=3521

Changelog is quite self-explanatory. I've removed xterm_hintbar (btw
it was coded quite sloppy) Layout option and replaced it with
xterm_title.

Added update_xterm_title_path wchich shows cpanel->cwd in xterm window
title. It changes home dir into ~, strips password and replaces
control codes (ascii <=32) with '?'. I guess it is enough, high ascii
codes (>128) seems to cause no trouble to xterms (tested), and they
are often used for national characters - it would be no good to filter
them out.

This function is invoked on panel focus and panel cd, so it works well
even when prompt shows wrong path.

ps. I've found small bug in the hintbar code, I'll submit patch for
this separately.
