dvi2ps creates a confusing title

[ororo]

Binary package hint: texlive-base

Situation: I compile a file somestuff.tex -> somestuff.dvi ->somestuff.ps
using latex and dvi2ps.
Then, I open somestuff.ps and in the title bar I see a strange title: "somestuff.dvi".

This is very confusing.

I don't know exactly which application creates the title "somestuff.dvi": maybe latex? or dvi2ps?
In any case, I suggest that
(i) latex could generate a more simple title "somestuff", or
(ii) dvi2ps could correct any ".dvi" title into ".ps".

Using "texlive-base 2007.dfsg.1-5", on Ubuntu 9.04.

A correction: the executable is /not/ dvi2ps, but dvips.

I will post here the beginning of one of the generated postscripts:

Plese mark this topic as "won't fix". I contacted the latex staff some time ago, they consider this behaviour a /feature/, insted then a bug!!!
Anyway, I solved the problem manually, changing the title inside the ps file:

sed 's/somestuff.dvi/A new and elegant title/' somestuff.ps > somenewstuff.ps
