Thoughts on improving IE9 integration features

The new desktop integration features of IE9 are great.  However, I have a few thoughts on how they could be improved.

Icon Integration

IE9 lets you pin your site to the taskbar and it places your site's icon on the taskbar & the IE9 window.  But, what if a site your using doesn't have a favicon?  Here's an example: the C# Help web site.  It doesn't have a favicon, so you get the default IE logo. 

That isn't terrible, but if I pin multiple sites that don't have a favicon, I end up with lots of IE logo icons.  Which is which?  There is no way to tell.  And, there is no way for the user to customize the icon that is displayed.  Shortcuts support this, but pinned sites don't.  This is a problem.

This could be easily corrected if there was a icon selection dialog for the end user.  This would allow the user to put unique icons on their sites...regardless if the site was built with this feature in mind.

Jump List Integration 

Another desktop integration feature is the Jump List.  If a site doesn't have the appropriate metatags, then you get the very basic jump list.

It would be super cool if I could customize the jump list.  What if I could add bookmarks to the jump list?  This would allow me to easily visit different parts of the site.

So Microsoft, what do you think?  IE9 is still in beta...there is still time.  Go for it!!
