Could we have a single section on mdn that describes the split view concept, linking the SUMO page and cross-references the relevant APIs? That would be useful as a wayfinding mechanism when we add more features.

Maybe somewhere low at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Working_with_the_Tabs_API ?
