Why not?  Or do you mean to say that in many cases the expected icon
would not be informative?

Eg, I have Firefox set up to "Open all [my moderated mailing lists] in
tabs".  Most of them are for XEmacs, so each tab has the list name
(informative string), the XEmacs favicon (uninformative icon), and a
close box (uninformative widget).  Obviously, just the favicon
wouldn't be very useful!
