Docking browser tabs to windows manager.



Hello, I'm mainly a browser user, the OS is a thin shell that I require to run a browser,
I check my email in GMail, do my finances in google sheets, use whatsapp through a web interface, banking through a browser interface, etc...

Is there a windows manager that would allow me to split a tab into a new window such that the new window is recognized as a separate application?

Here's a couple of possible integrations,
Windows manager could use favicon on OS toolbar.
Navigation with alt+tab would work making alt+~ unnecessary.
Webapps could be pinned to OS toolbar, effectively providing an 'installation' UX mechanism that is technically equal to the command 'browser-app url'.

This sounds pretty cool, but the window manager I'm using (gnome) doesn't support any of it. Any alternative window manager (or os) I could look into?

thanks.

Any ideas into what
