If we ask a thousand people to run a nightly under a profiler for a few days

If the users are a good distribution and we collect a list of every
function we run we should be able to compare that to a list of things
that go into libxul, and maybe we'd find something useful.
I guess the question becomes how practical it is to set this up and run
it, vs. the anticipated value of the results.
(Whether it's a good fit for this task or not, community-assisted
tooling is something we can do that not a lot of other orgs can, and I
think it's worth remembering that we've got that potentially very heavy
club in the bag.)
