Many of my app tab icons are just blank page icons, all the same. Is there any way to customize app tab icons?

Major sites have distinctive logos that are displayed in app tabs. Minor sites don't have distinctive logos and the icons are just the blank page icons (with folded upper right corners). Is there any way to make a custom icon or to display the site name in an app tab?

Sorry, those icons are set by the website. Firefox can't change them.

It's also fairly easy to create a Greasemonkey script or Firefox addon to do it for you.
