New tabs no longer appear in italics

Previously, when I opened a new tab but had not yet gone to look at its contents, the tab title would be in italics - it's how I easily kept track of which things (like recipes) I hadn't yet read through.

Once I went to that tab, the tab title changed to regular, non-italic font.

As of a few days ago, any new tabs I open are in non-italic font.

I've looked through Tools/Options and whatnot and can't find anything. I'd like to get my italics-in-new-tabs back. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure if this helps, but I use Colorful Tabs - but I've been using that for a few years and it has very few options available.

That is not a standard feature of Firefox, do you have any extensions that could have added this feature?

Alternatively have you ever added any code to userChrome.css to add this feature?
