Yeah, they are not "the global addressbar, stop/refresh button, back/forward button"... they are "that tab's addressbar and buttons".

Just imagine: if instead of opening a lot of tabs you just opened a lot of windows, each window would have its addressbar and buttons. Then, if you use a tabbing window manager (that groups windows of the same program in tabs), then you would have exactly what Firefox and Chrome has today.
