If I understand this correctly, do they mean Firefox desktop GUI is rendered using HTML elements? I understand chrome UI controls are based on skia.

If yes, is this available as some kind of framework that can be used to develop custom desktop applications (like Qt)?

Getting rid of XBL is a big and good step, but XUL is still being used. They're working on getting rid of that too. It's not all HTML yet.
