期望自定时定义的名字能不止于两个字,有的网页比如Spotify添加后不会显示图标
So much promise! But there's a deal killer. When adding a URL bookmark to the view, it doesn't use the FAVICON of the site. Instead it uses a stupid little star graphic. Yes, you can use your own custom graphic, but that's a lot more work. The favicon should be the default. Removing from browser, sadly.
