[support] Change title of View Tab on a node page

[sumeet pareek]

Hey.. that looks to me a perfectly valid way. You could try and use the
'themer' module from the devel family to check how else that can be done. A
preprocess function in the template file is not a bad way either. I dont see
you triming and adding an ellipsis in your code.
