By default, the titlebar (as the name suggests) is on top of the terminal's window. However, it'd be much more convenient to have the titlebar at the bottom of the terminal, close to where the prompt is.

Long answer: There is no such feature, yet. You could post a feature request on the bug tracker or even write a patch yourself. I'm not sure about the chances of this getting into mainline i3. I guess it will depend on the added complexity (impact on current code, configuration, code maintenance, testing), if Michael gives the ok.
