Renaming "favorites" with Greasemonkey

Renaming "favorites" with Greasemonkey
I wrote a Greasemonkey script that lets you, on-the-fly, modify the "favorites" label on comments. Originally written because the November experiment's "faved" was unpopular, but since updated for the classic count of favorites.

You too could have 5 butts lol.

Would enabling "HAZ 5 FAVORITEZ" be appreciated?

Oh yes indeedy.

The default is simply to show a star for a comment that's been fave'd. Which is as it should be.

Okay, "⊕ x 5" works now.

Ahh ... that's much nicer to look at than has favourites, thanks.

I'm currently enjoying This comment has favourites, sir.

I tried to get toolbar text of How many? 5, sir. but that would take some delving into XPath.

I updated it to work post-November-Experiment, though the mouseover text eludes me.
