Window titles don't have enough padding #6313

Description

Welcome

  • Yes, I've searched similar issues and discussions on GitHub and didn't find any.

Impact

  • This feature requires new configuration and/or commands

Current Behavior

The title is too close to the left, using for_window [all] title_format " %title" makes it too far away from the border.
This occurs on all fonts. I don't like to use title_align center.

Desired Behavior

The font should be padded evenly on all sides. In this instance, it should be 2px further away from the left (5px from the top, 5px from the bottom, 5px from the left), not sure how this would work with different font sizes.
