Quite comfortably, with my browser(s) using about the right-hand thwo
thirds of my screen (full height) and email/news apps using about the
left half (full height). They overlap a bit, but both modes (browsing
and communications) are always visible for a one-click focus switch from
one to the other.
Similarly, when I reply to a Usenet post, my editor opens up on the
right half, with my news client still readable on the left. See:

You'll notice the title bar for my email client at the top of the screen
above my news client window.
Nothing *ever* "cascaded"; rarely anything other than watching a film on
DVD ever full-screened -- the two choices that you apparently think are
all that one can do because you've seen little buttons for them.
