Yes... but not really. I'd mentioned that browsers are effectively
operating systems unto themselves these days. That's not hyperbole. A
browser tab is much like a Linux container running whatever site that
tab has open. Even if that site is static HTML, the tab needs to render
and display that site's HTML, and it has to run whatever relevant
browser add-ons apply to that tab.
