the web frontend being single threadded was such a boon for adoption, but it really limits the UX of web apps

I would highly recommend using the distribution and not a container. Lots of magic happens on lots of ports for network discovery of devices. And upgrades are painless that way too.

I'm all for having the option, but I agree let's not force it

Oh that makes this slightly more compelling

I'll buy that one, except some of these browsers keep that space unused instead of extending the viewing into that area. in edge it's just wasted space. but that's probably just bad up on MS's part

I really don't understand vertical tabs... why are they good? They seem like they should just take up more space?
