I talked to peterv about the pdf.js issues this morning, and the general consensus is that fake plugins were seen as "a way" to fix those issues but not a definite solution. Also, it had been for a while since any of that was even discussed and no one had approached the problem, so removing fake plugins for now was fine, and once work on that was active, we can revisit and possibly revive parts as needed.
