VS Code

What issue are you seeing?
It would be great to have the ability to set a custom title for a Codex chat — for example, a short summary (~100 characters) instead of displaying the first message. This would make it much easier to navigate between multiple conversations.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Start a new conversation, it will use the first user's message as title of the chat in the chat list.
What is the expected behavior?
Same as in Web-based ChatGPT
