Another request:
A store should be able to configure a “default favicon”, or even store multiple favicons at the “branding” level, i.e. at the “store” level, not at the “theme” level.
And the default should automatically populate to a new theme unless a different favicon is chosen at the theme level.
For someone who does new themes often for promotions, etc., the current method is a pain, and the favicon is easy to forget in creating a new theme.
This current method is also a pain for a “low tech” store owner who currently “needs help” figuring out things like favicons, currently buried in the config of a theme.
