Which has made Firefox essentially unusable because it will fall into
koma ("Not Responding") for minutes upon almost each and every
mouseclick. Unfortunately I don't know any significantly better
alternatives.

"Web apps" are the most efficient way I know of to make users who have
to get actual work done as inefficient as possible. It's especially an
extremely effective way, together with Firefox's "responsiveness", to
make any operating system as obscenely unusable as Windows.
