This extension gives each Docs, Sheets, and Slides document a unique favicon to make them visually distinguishable in a long row of small tabs. Over time you'll learn the icons for your favorite docs.

I mean, it's useful. I often have more than one Google Doc open at a time, and it's nice to have different favicons so I can navigate them more easily. But the favicons are assigned arbitrarily and at random. I wish there were some way to choose the favicon for each document, so I can make it match the theme of the document. (Also, it would be nice if the extension installation page had some instructions on how to make it work - I had to Google it!)
