I noticed this when mass-importing bookmarks from IE. The bookmark icons are not shown until the corresponding sites are visited. So when you import a lot of bookmarks from another browser, you get a lot of blank squares: that's kind of sad :-)

It would be nice if Firefox could automatically show all favicons for all bookmarks.

yep, we never exported nor imported favicons.
Btw since related to the IE importer, moving to Migration.
