Why is the "missing favicon" icon gone on new tabs?
When I open a new tab, or I am on a page with no favicon, the little dotted line square that used to be present is now gone. Is this intentional? And if it is, can I bring it back, preferably with the classic theme restorer?

I don't see that option in Classic Theme Restorer 1.1.8. You can request the feature.
- Install Stylish and restart Firefox when prompted.
- Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
- In the Add-ons Manager, click User Styles on the left.
- Click the Write New Style button at the top. Paste the following in the text box, give the style a name, then click the Save button.
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); .tabbrowser-tab .tab-throbber:not([busy="true"]) + .tab-icon-image:not([src]) { display: -moz-box !important; list-style-image: url("data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAABAAAAAQCAYAAAAf8/9hAAAAtUlEQVR42t2TQQrCMBBFe4HqungBV8USjC01iKt2UVBcuPAwHkAKRSwFN141zi/DULpKiCsXL8kw/3+SkETW2iDGQZeHdabL+2ZbfKiOMYPL9bYDXEsPWngkQOX7Zz+8T7Q2EGFmVoyZ9qCFRwI4PYHAkQQeCZB0P8xsB34B8AQF/PYIdXOufAPg+aM7CN9Bbo4vevPa1QwtPBLwaLvxbbt+JmjhkQBiQaSE4loxS0bNeil7oi+lcro7fpDjUgAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==") !important; }
If you don't want to install an add-on, you can use the userChrome.css file instead, but I don't recommend it.

This worked and brought back the icon. Thank you so much!
If you would prefer another icon then you can use this code (works for more cases):
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); .tabbrowser-tab .tab-throbber:not([busy="true"]) + .tab-icon-image:not([src]) { display: -moz-box !important; } #tabbrowser-tabs .tab-icon-image:not(src), .sidebar-placesTreechildren::-moz-tree-image(leaf), .bookmark-item:not(src):not([container]):not([type]){ list-style-image: url("chrome://global/skin/icons/folder-item.png") !important; -moz-image-region: rect(0px,16px,16px,0px) !important; }
