I'd personally prefer that we move in the other direction, removing the
minification. I think it's harmful to the open Web to minify, or worse,
obfuscate our code. As expected, we've encountered a number of bugs that
disappear when the debug=true URL parameter is specified. And given other
performance optimization work and existing optimizations such as gzip
compression, I don't see the benefits outweighing the costs.
