It's possible to use the preprocessor to join multiple JS files,
but we've been moving away from that as much as possible
recently.
With the script precompiler enabled, though, there isn't very much
per-script overhead for scripts loaded via the subscript loader
at startup. And if the new code isn't likely to be needed during
startup, you can use the subscript loader to lazily load it the
first time it's needed, rather than at startup. So I'd recommend
you go one of those two routes.

I'm working on a new feature which will add a new JS class.
I can grow the main file (mozIntl.js) or add it in a separate file
(mozIntlLocale.js).
For readability, I think it would be nicer if I could add it as a separate file
(I like to keep my files under 500 lines), but I don't want us to pay the
runtime price of loading the file via JSM or XPCOM interfaces.
Is there anything like a RollupJS in our build system? Or is there any plan to
add it?
