One thing that currently needs it is usb-modeswitch. I'd love the usb-modeswitch-dispatcher thing to be rewritten in C, Vala, or another compiled language. Not only is it holding tcl in the default install, but it also dramatically slows down boot. > - Localized help images.

Since Lucid (or so) we strip those out of the app packages and ship them in the language packs. That already saved us a lot of space.
