Unable to change Contacts Page <title>-Tag with XML

[grasdaggel]

Dear community,

I think I may found something unwanted.

Theres a layout default.xml for the contact page in

vendor/magento/module-contact/view/layout/ => default.xml
Line 13:
<argument name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Contact Us</argument>

When I make an duplicate of this file and copy it to

app/design/frontend/ThemeName/Namespace/Magento_Contact/layout/ => default.xml

and change the line from "Contact us" to something else, the changes make no change in the <title>-Tag of the page itself.

Is this intended or a bug, or am I just simply doing something wrong here. What I want to do is to change the <title>-Tag of the contact page, since its not translateable over the backend right now.

This could be a feature in future releases, in order to keep Magento translateable.
