Hardly surprising for such a massive cross platform project. Catering to the particularities of each platform wastes a lot of effort. I personally really appreciate that Firefox works (mostly) the same on all the platforms I use.
Web browsers have practically become operating systems these days. I'm fully expecting someone to create a web browser web app at some point. Not as a joke, which has obviously been done before.
