Doesn't work when you use the "u" keyboard shortcut to go from an individual message back to All Mail -- the count disappears from the title. Hitting "u" a second time to refresh the All Mail headers list does restore the counter in the title.

Nice idea! And it seems to work, but Gmail gives this message on top of the page: "Oh no! If you use a security program or firewall you may have to deactivate it." Strange.

I had no idea I had so many unread emails... :O
