Currently it's "other" for chrome and Firefox, and "icon" for Safari.
According the spec, it's vague what it should be (maybe "link" since it's originated from a link tag?)
It's difficult to write a WPT for it since it's not straightforward to force favicon loading in Safari.

Agree it'd be good to align here, but unclear on what value.

Other than Safari being hard, did you find what values are returned on Chrome/Firefox?

It returns "other" in Chrome and Firefox.

I don't think it would be a big deal to change Safari to say "other" here

See also #299. I wonder if favicon should have a resource timing entry at all, given that it's not accessible in the document in any other way.

This was discussed on the WG call.
