Let me clarify this for you, as your understanding is incorrect. Like any software, webapps will always be incomplete. The implementation of the integration was not poor (at least I don't like to think so), but there were features that got de-scoped for 12.10. Chromeless browsing in Firefox was one item. There is a chromeless mode for Chromium, it exists in 12.10. Chromeless mode does not, however, prevent you from having multiple tabs. You could have 10 instances of Facebook, or YouTube in one of these chromeless browser windows. Chromeless mode is accessed when you have a launcher icon and launch a new instance of a webapp from it. Integration should always work from the browser though, how else would you find that a webapp exists?
