As far as I can tell Application doesn't expose it's screen directly, and it doesn't have a way to call screen.SetTitle.
The workaround isn't too difficult, but it would still be nice to be able to have an app.SetTitle

Workaround:

screen, err := tcell.NewScreen()
if err != nil {
	return err
}
if err = screen.Init(); err != nil {
	return err
}
screen.SetTitle("My Terminal App")
a.SetScreen(screen)
