Should this feature be available in a private browsing session if these history items are not written?

I'm seeing this in normal browsing, too, for any page that doesn't have a title. For example, https://people.mozilla.org/~bnicholson/test/empty-title.html.

Yes, the list should still work even if the history items are not saved to History.

If the title and/or favicon is unavailable, use first letter of domain (not globe) and URL
