Sometimes Gmail Labs features really aren't ready for primetime

I have the unread message icon feature turned on in my Gmail and it does absolutely nothing. Of course I am using Firefox 4 beta, so that might have something to do with it. On the other hand, considering how widespread use of the beta is, and how bloody long Mozilla's been taking to get Firefox 4 out the door officially, you'd think they'd support it. Hence "not ready for prime time."

Update: I just updated to Firefox 4.0b10 and this feature now works. So I guess it was a Firefox problem after all.
