It's possible. It has been done, e.g. using Tweak. You just need to Do It.

Some people want it, but not badly enough to actually put in work. The infrastructure is all there by now (well, except for the unix VM, which has the primitives stubbed out, and iPhone/iPad/Android where "native windows" are considered seriously last millennium).

If all you want is easier switching between browser windows, add the window switcher (can't remember what the package is called, it's like the Windows taskbar).
