...then there is Google included an actual API for extensions
in their Chrome Browser.

Creators of extensions for that browser
are always writing to that backwards-compatible layer
and not having to constantly re-invent the wheel.

It's one reason why Chrome
is gathering up browser marketshare like a Hoover set on HI.

Multi-process browsing is another meme
where other browsers are making Gecko,
with its multi-threaded browsing, look dated
(where one screwed-up tab can kill everything).

These are the prices you pay for being a pioneer:
Everybody else gets to learn from your mistakes
and applies that knowledge to *their* product.
