I generally dislike responses that don't answer the question, but
might I suggest using the frame title instead:

(setq frame-title-format
  '((buffer-file-name "%f" (dired-directory dired-directory "%b")) " - "
    invocation-name "@" system-name))

There's a lot more space up there and less clutter.
