This is a fantastic script.

Unfortunately, it's not compatible with Tasks from Gmail Labs. If I open Tasks or open a new Gmail tab with Tasks already open or minimized, the favicon updates as normal, but immediately reverts to the default icon (i.e., not the gmail icon, the default firefox icon). As soon as I close Tasks and reload Gmail, the favicon is persistent again. It's reproducible every time, though I haven't tried removing addons and such.
