On the other hand these facts enable us to kick this non-functioning and unmaintainable crap out without a serious negative impact.
Count me among those who are very happy to see a large, unmaintained, outdated, problematic part of our codebase being removed, and thanks for doing so!
But we need to be quite clear in telling users what we will drop by extending the "Mozilla removal" from the initial idea of replacing just the crypto support to this idea of dropping the Address Book functionality too.
The above issues show that functionality had been (and still is) crippled, but not that it is 100% broken. Would it be possible to extract some short bullet points, or use cases, of what is lost by dropping Mozilla at this stage? We could put it early in the draft Release Notes and give proper notice to the (hopefully few) users who may still depend on it.
