// another URL which has lost the title param we added, we will re-run forever.

// is the same as the last one we did set (via GM_set/getValue) then do not try
// again.
// This has never happened so far. :)
// If you are interested in YouTube images:
// Thumbnails url looks like http://img.youtube.com/vi/8aYQ_wjmriQ/2.jpg
