But, honestly, why waste the space in your title? Repeating your site
name
is not optimum use of that valuable real estate.
But it is helpful to folks that like to bookmark the page. Though I concede
that their needs are usually trumped by SEO these days.

HTML (not DW) has no such capability.
This is not the matter of HTML. It is pretty common to have some repeating
text in page titles throughout the site, and therefore I would consider the
possibility to define such constants/variables as a basic feature for any
comprehensive webdesign software.

There's really no need for DW to do this natively, as this is really a
behavior of the server-side-scripting language, like PHP, which you can edit
in DW.

I dont see a reason why to force people to PHP because of such a simple thing
like substitution of text strings.

Let me say it slowly. HTML has no such capability. You are not grasping
the scope of the solution.

It would require something to happen ON THE SERVER, not in the user's
browser. The pages would have to be loaded with the variable BEFORE being
uploaded to the browser.
