How can you get Gmail to show the number of unread messages in the favicon? Specifically, are there any plugins for Chrome that allow me to do it with both regular Gmail and Google Apps? I've used Better Gmail and Gmail Alert (both of which use the same underlying script) but they only work on one, only show up to "3+" new messages, and are often out of date.

The Gmail Favicon Alerts 3 user script works on Chrome, as well as Firefox and Opera (although I haven't tested Opera). It will show up to 999 new messages, and works on Gmail and Google Apps, even if both are opened in tabs.
