User-specific pages should show username in the browser title

Title:
User-specific pages should show username in the browser title

Area:
icons, memories making things make sense

Summary:
The browser title for user-specific pages like icons and memories should also include the username, especially when it's not your own journal.

Description:
Currently, the /icons page (for example, http://azurelunatic.dreamwidth.org/icons ) merely has "Icons" as the page title. Something like "Icons - username" might be more useful, especially if someone has multiple tabs open with multiple people's icon pages. Memories (/tools/memories?user=example) has the same problem.

I prefer little-endian (most-specific first, out to least-specific) page titling, for example "Icons - azurelunatic - Dreamwidth" although places like the profile page have the username first in the title and then the specific page title, so it should probably be standardized across the site at least as far as pages in the main site style go.

Most of the pages have the username first, which I prefer: I'm more likely to group tabs by the journal than by the function, so "[username] | [page]" is my with changes vote.

I'm little-endian in general cases because you can often identify the site from the favicon, but in this case, I think I'd rather have username first. If it says "susanreads | Readi..." I know it's my reading page or a filter; journal titles and post titles can be long and push the username off the tab.
