This wish should be related to the bug "favicons vanish when mozilla is crashes"
and "favicons should have it's own cache", once with those problems this wish
would not be very usefull (only if mozilla never crashed).
Well the thing is that some sites do not have favicon or internet icons, and I
(and most people) like favicons for finding fast a bookmark, and using favicons
on all personal toolbar bookmarks.
Konqueror keeps their icons asd the site's url (www_terra_com_br.png for
example) so I can put a icon with the name as the url I want to have a favicon
and voilá! I have a favicon on a site that dosen't have a favicon. This can be
used for changing favicons too.
The thing is that mozilla keeps favicons with cache, so this method wold not
work at all (I wish too that some day all browsers would share cache and use
NAMES for the cache files instead of something like HGKFGJOHGFIGHFOJHGHOJ).
So it would be very VERY nice to have a option to choose a icon for bookmarks on
bookmarks properties.
