I had an idea for a feature for the tabbed browser: the titles of tabs 
whose contents have not yet been viewed (that is, the page just loaded 
and the tab is not active) should show up in bold, and those of tabs 
whose contents have changed since being last viewed (that is, the tab 
was active when the page was downloading, but was made inactive before 
the page was fully downloaded) should be underlined. It would make it 
easier to keep track of which tabs have been viewed.

It would also be consistent with mailnews threading, where boldface 
marks unread threads and underline marks threads containing read and 
unread messages. The general rule would be: boldface means totally 
new/unread, underline means partly read, plain means read.

I'm going to submit it to bugzilla (unless someone convinces me that it 
would be a horrible idea). But I'm curious...would this be considered 
one bug or two? It seems like two, but both would be required for UI 
consistency with mailnews.

Thoughts?
