IE7 favicons

Why does Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 7 have such a scrappy tab bar? On the PLUS side IE7’s tab bar does use little screen real estate as they squeeze in a lot of buttons (including the Favourites, Quick Tabs, Home, Feeds, Print, Page and Tools buttons) but on the other hand I’m not happy that if a site has no favicon IE7 insists on displaying the IE7 icon.

Nice try, Microsoft, but increased exposure to the IE7 icon will not make me a more regular user of your browser (I’m only using IE7 as my backup pony whilst my trusty FireFox does some work via Privoxy)
