In a recent project I wanted to show two views of one list. The problem is that by default the title of the List node is copied into title[1] and title[2]. To solve this, you must include the <webpart> in the view element. So I opened the ONET.xml of the site definition. In the Configuration/Lists section I added my list feature:
<Lists>
<List FeatureId="<myGuid>" Title="My List" Type="12345" Url="Lists/MyList" />
</Lists>
Then in the Modules/Module/File section in the ONET.xml we need to add the View element:
<View List="Lists/My List" BaseViewID="1" WebPartZoneID="Header" WebPartOrder="1" Type="HTML">
<![CDATA[
<WebPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2">
<Title>My first custom title</Title>
<Assembly>Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c</Assembly>
<TypeName>Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.ListViewWebPart</TypeName>
</WebPart>
]]>
</View>
<View List="Lists/My List" BaseViewID="2" WebPartZoneID="Header" WebPartOrder="2" Type="HTML">
<![CDATA[
<WebPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2">
<Title>My second custom title</Title>
<Assembly>Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c</Assembly>
<TypeName>Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.ListViewWebPart</TypeName>
</WebPart>
]]>
</View>
As you can see, in the CDATA you can find an element Title which you can use for your own custom title!
Have fun!
