Like any other normal view, you should be able to have multiple instances of GeckoView.
Is anyone actively working on that?

We are working towards it, yup.

Any timeline?
It's a pretty large effort. We plan to have a minimal working version in Q1.
Is there a more detailed estimating on remaining work? This can save a lot of workarounds for several progressive app related problems.
Any progress or plan? The next stage of works on Android Push may benefit from this.
Flags: needinfo?(nchen)
It's a work in progress that is partially working right now (you can use multiple GeckoViews in a non-Fennec app), but there's no timeline for full functionality.

What parts don't work properly yet?
Flags: needinfo?(nchen)
You can load an initial page, navigate, pan/zoom, and input text. Everything else (e.g. using the GeckoView API) is not supported.
