I'm wonder if its possible to change or refresh tab favicons and only favicons (without refreshing whole tabs). I looked through some pages on MDN and about WebExtensions but I haven't found any search bars. I've also done Google searches specifically for that with no luck.

Inserting/updating a link rel="icon" ... tag is one approach.

I haven't looked deeply at the extensions API, but is that a way to do so without loading the page?

Not that I'm aware of, but I'm far from an expert. Could maybe load in a hidden iframe...
