Allow me to add or change favicons in my Bookmark Toolbar

Hello, first I would like to say thank you for FireFox! By far the best and only browser I have used for years----

In my Bookmark Toolbar, some web sights to not offer Favicons. Instead your default Grey Planet Earth icon is placed. One is even blank(might just be their favicon though). So the smaller, more undeveloped websites(which the company I work for and many of its associates) all appear as a bunch of Grey Globes in my Bookmark Toolbar.

I am a visual person and remove the titles from my Bookmark Toolbar links; so I can easily navigate by image AND to fit more links on the Bookmark Toolbar. This is a HUGE reason I switched to you guys in the first place years ago and share this feature with many, causing them to convert to FireFox as well(and lots of other features you offer of course too).

So my suggestion is, can you add a feature to allow me to add or change favicons in my Bookmark Toolbar please!

Or is there a way to do that already(I am currently looking for Add-Ons now)? I did not find any answers on your site.

Thank you, Matt.

Try this extension and see if it still works in Firefox 49: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/identfavicon/
