It dies with the dreaded "webkit based browser suddenly aborts" symptom. What I've found is that if you want to do this in stable manner (at least on Void), you need the following command, EXACTLY: tabbed surf -peg The "p" arg tells it not to use plugins, which is what is needed to fix the sudden abort. Too bad Midori and the rest don't have the same arg. the "e" supposedly tells it to re-parent, but supposedly requires an argument for the parent. ????. The "g" prevents geolocation: The command runs fine without it, if you're willing to give away your position. The order of the three letters in the *single argument* appear to be very important. My experience was that unless the first letter is "p", you get some variation of the "webkit suddenly vanishes" problem. The "e" is necessary when running surf from tabbed, but fails if you run tab alone. As mentioned previously, "g" is optional as far as the browser running without crashing is concerned.
