i use this (with rmail) to create a new frame with a FIXED title.
(if window-system ; default/new frame
(defvar rmail-frame nil
"frame where mail should be displayed")
(defadvice rmail (before rmail-use-rmail-frame
(&optional file-name-arg) preact act comp)
"goto rmail-frame, create new frame, if there is none"
(or (and rmail-frame
(frame-live-p rmail-frame))
(setq rmail-frame (new-frame '((name . "Rmail")
(menu-bar-lines . 1)
(mini-buffer . t)
(width . 82) (height . 60)
(left . -1) (top . 0) ))))
(select-frame rmail-frame)))
you can then use the window (frame) title to go to that window.
