Product:Safari Product Version:10.1.1 (12603.2.4)
Classification:Suggestion Reproducible:
 
Summary:
Unlike all others major browsers, Safari does not display the websites' favicon on open tabs. While I appreciate the cleanliness of the UI, I also think having a colored a visual clue as to which website is open in which tab (and not having to read the tab title) is a important productivity improvement.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open multiple tabs in Safari
2. Look at the tabs :)

Expected Results:
A favicon is displayed next to the tab's title.

Observed Results:
Text. Only text :(

Version:
Safari Version 10.1.1 (12603.2.4)
macOS Version 10.12.5 (16F73)

Notes:
If you think this would be problem for most users, maybe make this an opt-in options ?
Even having to enable this options via `defaults write` would be great !

Attached is a mockup to help understand my suggestion (in case it wasn't clear :)).
