Research direction
Review the Tab component (likely in packages/core/src/components/tab) to understand how the title is rendered. Consider adding a boolean prop like 'editable' that wraps the title in an EditableText component. Ensure keyboard navigation and accessibility are maintained. Check existing tests for Tab to add new tests for the editable title feature.
