I have been trying to find a way to get as much done with as few windows open as possible. I think I now have found the one browser that will reduce my window count by at least two.
I have found Opera! With a downloads tab and integrated torrent client, integrated email client and RSS reader, and the Google Calendar and ScribeFire extensions, I have all of the features I need in one window.
I am currently using a separate torrent client, because Opera currently has no support for magnet links or UPnP (the later is needed because of my piece of shit Verizon DSL modem/router), and I have to have a filemanager open, so I'm up to three windows, right?
Wrong! Thanks to fluxbox, I can drag the titlebar of one window into the titlebar of another and merge the windows into tabbed windows. So I really only have two windows, one for all of my internet activity and the file manager.
If I want to get my CLI freak on, I'll open a terminator window and split it into 4 consoles, for some quadro-commandline action.
So now, I can have 3 open windows and multi-task up to 10 tasks. WTF?
