Thanks for posting

Yes, but this solution is indeed "tricky", working around inabilities and limitations of the current system. It would indeed be nice to have a real embedded browsing solution as just another addon that enables me to browse websites (maybe even while the music keeps on playing) somewhere in xbian's normal menu structure.

I think the main problem will be that every standard browser expects to find an X-server while Kodi by design does not run an X-server. So there probably won't be an easy solution to this dilema, you'll always either end in a trickery like above (which of course is not seamless) or the task to do a major rewrite of FF (which will likely lead to excessive effort compared to the benefits).
