As to the favicons/progress spinner/close widget positioning, I don't like too much stuff in a tab. So I prefer to either forget about favicons (they're in the URL bar anyway), in which case we could have just the spinner at the left of the tab and once the page is loaded replace it with the close widget (if you want a tab closed while it's loading the page, simply click on the spinner).
If people absolutely must have a favicon, it should be a preference setting and then have the spinner replaced by the favicon (clicking on the favicon closes the tab; this could be indicated in the preference setting like "Use favicons on tabs instead of close button (click on favicon to close tab)". But please, only one widget per tab.

On this one, i'd have to agree. The difference between the tabs and the bookmarks is far too subtle.

why do you find this necessary? It's not like the window containing the tabs looks like a folder or a drawer or anything resembling something that holds tabs in the real world. I do feel these convey what is happening. As for the color scheme, if you look at the way the window tittle-bars behave in Panther, the active window is a the slightly 3D-ish gray, while the inactive windows have the white pinstripe theme. It might be more consistent if Camino's tabs just mimicked that behavior.

Sorry, don't like it at all. I actually like tabs that look like tabs; there's hardly any idea graphically given here. Don't much like the favicon over on the far right either. If there weren't the close and favicon, I'd hardly be able to distinguish these from a second line of toolbar bookmarks.
