> I get that you like favicons, but how is the lack of this one very minor feature something you consider a complete roadblock to using the browser as a whole?

For those of us with lots of tabs (e.g. more than a dozen), favicons are the only way to know what is in each tab. With only a letter or two showing, favicons are the only tab content identifier that exists.

This goes double for Safari, which filters out any text in tab names that is shared between two or more tabs.

I normally group my windows by subject instead of having a bunch of completely unrelated tabs in a single window. You can also use Show All Tabs (⌘⇧\) to see all of the tabs in a window in a manner that shows you what each tab is (and also groups some tabs together, I think based on site, but I don't use it often enough to figure out the exact rules of when it groups tabs).

A window for "things opened from hacker news" can quickly get to well over a dozen tabs. :)
