Netflix limits video quality on Firefox although you can trick it with an extension. Then there is the fact that hardware accelerated decoding for Linux/X11 hasn't hit yet.

Anyway one valid solution is to add one or more app shortcuts that effectively run chrome/chromium --app=url and collectively treat these chrome specific apps as such. Instead of opening a new tab just click the icon on your bar.

This doesn't quite handle for example links however one could use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-in-chrom... to click on links and send them to chrome for known problematic sites.

This is still way better than in the early firefox/IE days.

Netflix limits video quality on Netflix and Chrome to 720p in the same way (except for ChromeOS), so I'm not sure that really fits your argument.
