It'd be incredibly handy if the unread count were at the left of the
window title rather than in the middle, so that when the tab is
minimised you can see if new messages come in.
For example, currently the window title is:
"Google Mail - Inbox (3) -
em...@example.com - Browser Name"
Simply restructuring this to
"3 unread - Google Inbox"
Or better still:
"(3) Inbox - Google Mail"
would make a big usability difference. This is more a problem for
"Google Apps For Domains" accounts where the window title is:
"The Name Of Your Domain Mail - Inbox (3) -
em...@example.com -
Browser Name"
I know there is a Firefox extension for this but I prefer Chrome for
reading GMail.
