Added Mute project
Other ideas are possible, and a combination of these might be necessary. Ultimately, this fix should target regular users without much knowledge of the filesystem.
== Implement Audio and Visual Mute in the Browser ==
It would be useful if you could pause/mute/freeze distracting content in a tab. Often this means plugins, which are playing music or animating. One possible solution is to expose the API that bfcache uses to freeze/thaw a window, since plugins are themselves "windows." Other platform specific approaches may also be available (e.g., hooking sound API calls in Windows).
