So it wouldn't be bloatware if both the browser and composer elements
were large rather then a large browser element and a small composer
element (which, according to the above paragraph, is bloat)?

Yup. So the big question really is, why not take the browser.xpi and
split it up if it can be? If it can't be split up, how come? (general
