Trying to browse without a resizeable window, menus, toolbars or status bar can be pretty annoying. Also - in some windows like this the "open in new tab" functionality seems to load the page (there is disk thrashing etc.) but as the tab-bar isn't visible there's no way to switch to it (ctrl-tab doesnt work).
