I can put a truncated portion on the bug title into the page title, but that truncation will appear under the untruncated heading. Well that is not exactly true, because the bread crumbs have there own truncation rules at 40 characters.

I have a clear memory of previous debates around page title and bug
titles; I think we should keep it there unless we do some testing to
see whether users really do value it (I believe they do...).

We could do that testing via A/B routes, or user testing or whatever.

-> how do you feel about doing the 40 or 64 characters in the title
(I'd suggest 64) for now ?
