Unlike most bloated projects, most of that bloat actually does something 
useful. What I would like to see in Mozilla is a kernel-modules-style 
granularity, so that (for example) 
XUL|Java|NewsClient|MailClient|Flash|etc isn't part of the binary until 
you use an XUL|Java|NewsClient|MailClient|Flash|etc feature, and 
evapourates a configurable number of minutes after you stop using it. 
Kind of like plugins that really are plugins...
