Bug Description
Setting up a new Xubuntu 14.04.1 system, I discovered that if xfce4-terminal (0.6.3-1ubuntu1) is started with an initial title using the -T or --title flags, then dynamic title updating can never occur. Starting the terminal without using -T or --title option results in proper window decoration updating. The xfce4-terminal preferences include a default initial title string (which is used if no title is specified on the command line) and the option is set to "Replace initial title."

Build Identifier:
although I set Dynamically-set title to "replaces intitial title", the title is frozen to the original title specified on the command line. When calling Terminal without title option (or directly vte), the title changes as expected (e.g. when editing a file with vi filename etc. is shown in title)
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. invoke Terminal --title=Frozen
2. edit some file with vim -> no changes
3. invoke Terminal
4. edit some file with vim -> title changes
Actual Results:
title frozen to title specified on command line
Expected Results:
dynamically set title
