There probably isn't too much that comes with browser that we don't
use. bookmarks, history, parts of wallet (but not all of it, we use it
to store password). There are some stuff under mozilla/netwerk (http,
ftp, etc) that we wouldn't need. And of course all the browser chrome.
We still need the big boys, like layout, rdf, editor (for message compose).

We aren't working "lighter" (meaning smaller size on disk, right?) but
we are working on "faster" for the next release.
