I have long web page title and when adding to home screen in iPhone older versions the whole title is visible in the confirmation dialog. When I add to home screen in iPhone 4 the title is cut off after the 12th symbol. Is there a way to stop this cutting so iPhone is showing the full title by default?

Apparently there will be a undocumented meta tag

<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-title" content="Title">

in iOS 6 to solve that issue.
