You might try setting a given window geometry
to accomodate the long title ....
win_w = 400
win_h = 300
ofs_h = 40
ofs_v = 30
window.geometry( "%dx%d+%d+%d" % ( win_w , win_h , ofs_h , ofs_v ) )
Maybe add a bit of extra space for users
with different default font sizes ....
Not a general solution
but perhaps workable ....
