Pin Tab Looks like a Magnify Glass

We are not really pinning the tab as we can move it. It should say Lock Tab or something like that... Plus the icon is not really clear, I would prefer a grayed out 'x' or a red circle around the 'x'

It was "Lock Tab" up until 10.5x, I think part of the reason for the name change is because it's not really "locked" since you can still navigate and interact with it, but nor is it "pinned" since as you mentioned it can be moved still. And the icon used to be a "lock" (still is for most 3rd party skins) rather than the lollipop...lol

It would probably be most accurate to have it called "Disable Closing" since that's about all it really does.

I like to think of them as "stubborn" pages. bigsmile

Now that I look at it I suppose the icon does kind of look like a magnifying glass; it would probably be help if the head were a colour other than grey.
