Chrome does not use one process per tab. In fact, it does something very similar to what you say Firefox does.

FWIW I do not have the problem you describe and I don't want Firefox wasting any more of my scarce memory, or for that matter, CPU.

Not really. Chrome uses a lot of processes for isolation. Firefox uses about four so it can take advantage of multiple cores.
