> Why should Firefox support tabs? Shouldn’t my window manager do that?

You're close to enlightenment. ;)

There should be a renderer, there should be a network engine, there should be a persistent storage, a secret storage keyring, a history tracker, etc - and they all should be small separate programs, talking common protocols, easily replaceable.

Non-interoperable giant monoliths are why we can't have nice things anymore and have to stick with whatever large companies can provide us at their own discretion. Because it's incredibly hard to patch that behemoth and even less so to maintain the patchset. That would be possible again if there'd be a plethora of small programs, each doing its own single thing and not trying to be everything and a kitchen sink.

I'd love to be able to have only one tab bar across all my applications. Probably a Tree Style Bar though.
