Site variables referenced in a page title are not resolved in a page's breadcrumbs

[nickvigilante]

Bug description

I just noticed that when we have a page referencing a site variable, the variable displays correctly in both the sidebar and in the page body itself. However, it doesn't render appropriately when in the page's breadcrumbs. See attached:

Steps to reproduce

1. git clone https://github.com/nickvigilante/title-variable-breadcrumb-issue
2. quarto preview

Expected behavior

The breadcrumbs should print This should show bar: bar.

Actual behavior

The breadcrumbs say This should show bar: {{< var foo >}}.

We just noticed this problem as well and discovered this GitHub issue while debugging.

I'm sorry again, but I still don't understand if this is a bug and will it be fixed in the future?

[mcanouil]

It has the "bug" label and the issue is opened (opposite to "closed as not planned").

Thank you. I will be waiting for the results of the correction.
