Extra caution is recommended when installing recently uploaded/updated scripts (read more)
Be sure you trust any scripts you install
Older Version Gmail Title
Changes the title of Gmail to the "older version" so the email address isn't appended in the "newer version".
In a recent update to Gmail ("newer version"), the title has your email appended to it. This script reverts it back to old way.
I adapted the script from Jon Ramsey's script located here: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/4146.
--
Updated so it doesn't show "Gmail - Inbox" while viewing an email or other page.
TODO: Update other pages so email also not appended.
--
Email removed from other pages.
--
labels now show as: '(n) "labelname"' or '"labelname"' if no unread emails.

Jeff,
Yeah, I usually have a certain label open and would really love to see unread number first there, but other scripts that I tried don't support that. The reason why I ask here is because I really like this particular script and having both current functionality and unread count first for labels would be awesome (or it could be in form of two separate scripts, it doesn't matter). I'll be thankful if you can look into it.
And thanks for replies.

Soul,
I wanted the title (namely, the Inbox's) to be like the older version before Gmail changed some things, because I've grown used to it and it's the most convenient way for me.
I don't usually keep gmail opened on a label, so, if you want the label to be a certain way, I'll see what I can do. If you want the Inbox to have the unread number first, there are other scripts that will do that for you.

Oh, pardon me for confusion =)
I assumed that the script also put the number of unread messages in front of the text. Tested it with labels, but didn't actually try for inbox to see that it actually doesn't do this.
Well, if it's possible to implement this feature I'd really appreciate it. If not, disregard my previous comment then :P

Soul,
What does it currently display for you and what do you want it to display as?

Great job, thanks!
One request though. Is it possible to make it work when viewing labels with unread mail as well?

lextel,
I couldn't reproduce what you were talking about, but hopefully my change works for you.

i think i found a bug: when someone sends me a chat message i get a weird message in the tab. generally it would say "mandy says" but it's a long string of something else now. when i disabled greasemonkey it works fine :\
