Do you have any suggestions on how to deal with this? Some combination of Firefox hacks and xmonad layouts? How do you set up your browsers?
I don't have a good answer for you, but this is something I've also thought about and tried to tweak. It's a bit odd to have a window manager, a browser that manages tabs and groups of tabs, a text editor with both tabs and its own internal concept of window layout, a terminal with tabs, and inside it, a terminal multiplexer with again its own concept of window layout and tabs. Still, I haven't been able to really unify all this very well. For Firefox in particular, though, there are a few useful tweaks/tips: - Most, but not all, of the superflous UI can be customized away. - Extensions like this might help: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ - Setting your homepage to "about:newtab" will give new windows the same useful behaviour as new tabs, like putting the cursor directly in the address bar when you start. - Shift-click opens links in a new window. Hope this helps a bit, -- Felix
