[Bug 1411722] Re: [webapps-container] Add proper support for multiple windows

 

This is good in that it adds the ability to open third-party sites
without falling back to the core browser app, but it's a bit awkward
since it uses a mechanism totally different than how the browser handles
it.  Multiple tabs might be nicer, so that the user could switch back
and forth between the original app and the site(s) they opened.  I tend
to use the primary browser instead of site-specific webapps because it
gives me regular tab and browser functions instead of the more limited
functionality in webapps.
