Am I missing something, or doing something wrong?

There is a built-in logic in firefox -- it queries (via X shared memory or something else -- I'm not an expert here) if firefox is already running, and if yes it just tells the already running instance to open another window. This is possible because you use one X server for both hardware node and container, so this is not a problem or a security hole in OpenVZ.

Try firefox -no-remote. Or use a separate X session for container, say, run Xvnc inside a container and connect to it using vncviewer.
