Summary: In Safari, when you have more than one tab open in a window, and the tabs are too narrow to show the full page title, it will omit any shared prefixes with other tabs. This is a nice feature. However, some sites (such as http://www.youtube.com and http://www.thisismyjam.com) change the page title to be prefixed with "▶" when a video/song is currently playing on that page. But, since this can then be a common prefix (if more than 1 tab is currently playing), then it will be removed. Steps to Reproduce: Open a window with 2 tabs, each playing a video on youtube. Then make the window narrow so that the full title won't fit, and the prefixing "▶" will be omitted. Expected Results: In this case, the whole purpose of the "▶" is to help you see which background tab is playing audio. Omitting the "▶" defaults the purpose of them, and makes it hard to see which tabs are playing audio. So, I think the "▶" should never be removed, if if it's common to multiple tab titles. Actual Results: The "▶" gets omitted.
