User Reviews
Pros
- Provides a quick, reliable way to rename tabs (works via right-click and as advertised).
- Integrates cleanly into the browser with a minimalist address-bar icon, keeping toolbars uncluttered.
- Receives praise for a simple, unobtrusive UI that blends with the browser and is easy to use.
- Often cited as a better option than similar extensions due to easier access from the address bar.

Simple and efficient

One problem. When the address bar is has a white background, the pen symbol does not show at all, as I suppose the pen is white.
You seem to have done your pen in the address bar only when the address bar has a black background.
BUT you forgot to do it for when the address bar has a white background and, in such a case, the pen should show only if the pen is black in this second case; in my case, a full white space on my address bar.
Moreover, it would be better to allow an icon of your addon to be pinned to the toolbar instead of using a full space on the address bar for every single tab.
Especially considering the fact that your space on my address bar (that has a white background) shows only as a white space without displaying at all a black pen because you created only a white pen for your address bar that has a black background.

Is Tab Rename Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Tab Rename requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Tab Rename has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
