There is absolutely nothing wrong with have proprietary forks. They exist for good reasons -- either a new browser or get embedded in another product which provides value for their end users. They may (or may not) contribute back to the original projects with bug reports, fixes and features.

Sorry this is not the GPLv3 everywhere world you are dreaming of, and I'm glad it works this way.

Like others said, if you want to have a GPLv3 licensed browser (that will probably be as unusable as GIMP), write one yourself.
