What happened is that XULRunner didn't become the platform, the web did.
Firefox, Thunderbird and other applications are not targeting to be XULRunner-based (i.e. shared XULRunner etc.) any more, and all focus at Mozilla has shifted on making web apps the great thing of the future, providing APIs to them so the web can be the future to build apps on, using HTML+CSS+JS instead of XUL+CSS+JS.
Given that, there's no reason for SeaMonkey to run after platform goals that everyone at Mozilla else has abandoned. And no, I don't have a link, there was no big announcement, this was just gradual change over time.
