Details

This function is synchronous and so will be difficult to make work in e10s. We should deprecate it and provide an async version.

so it seems to me that we could have some observer service notification here which tells the main process about changes to the icon used in tab, or do something similar to contentTitle http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/content/widgets/remote-browser.xml#122

I think we should not deprecate this api however.

Mossop thoughts?

ah never mind I was thinking about favicon, thumbnails should be async, let's deprecate this.
