Bug Description
This is an informational bug to document the removal of this feature from the Unity chromium extension.
Tab support in chromeless mode was the ability to have multiple tabs in webapps windows. The feature has been dropped due to its complexity, both technical and from an interface perspective.
As a background, the original chromeless feature, with integrated tabs, was used to test the seamless integration of web applications with the Unity Shell. The feature was only available for the Chromium browser, and not for the Firefox browser. The experience gained with that feature has helped us test its limits, and define better solutions, like the webbrowser-app container.

Note that specifically the feature required a distro patch in chromium-browser, which has now been dropped.
