I definitely understand the windowing you do. I, on the other hand, despise multiple windows for firefox. It's hate learned from IE I suppose. In my case, I use TreeStyle Tabs. The tree function is vital to working.

I think Tab Candy can combine these two concepts somewhat effectively, however, Mozilla should focus on speed, reliability, and accessibility. It's much more difficult to appease the average browser with hard facts compared to pretty videos and features, I suppose.

You'll be happy to know that our Firefox 4 Vision document contains several pages of plans for speed and stability and usability, and just one line about Tab Candy:
