Like this just isn't a great user experience. And I don't think they can work around it on their end because it would mean some kind of centralization, and well, yeah.
Yeah you can work around it with browser extensions, but for most people the out of the box experience is the deal breaker.
Also the default UI is still really terrible, even the advanced interface is kind of bad.
