I like this idea. A bit like the pause buttons on my VMs.

I have this type of issue more with Chrome than Firefox though and it always seems to be related to leaving a tab open with a video for a long time, even if it isn't being played.

At least with Chrome there is the built in Task Manager.

I'd love for Firefox to have a task manager like that.
