Volume level on new tabs

Excuse me, my English will not let me write it myself, so I'll use an translator. Please do something with volume control on windows. There are a lot of Mozilla processes in the volume mixer. It's not quite clear which one of them just opened the tab. And the volume of the new tab is initially the maximum, which is also not convenient.

I can offer 2 options, as I see it:

1. In the mixer leave only 1 process Mozilla, just a general volume control on all tabs. Maybe it's not so easy because of multithreading, but perhaps you could just tie the volume level of all tabs in one and hide them from the mixer, leaving only the main tab.

2. Make a different name for the processes in the mixer. It would be nice to call them by the name of the open tab.

Maybe I did not go to the right place, but I hope my review will be heard and, if necessary, transferred to a suitable place. In any case, thanks for the excellent browser, most recently changed the opera to Mozilla very satisfied. I wish you success in your work
