“Not that widely used" is an incredibly elastic term. When you axe twenty "5% features" your worst case is offending 100% of your users.

Which can be worth it depending on what you trade it for. I really liked the tab group feature but the new extension API is vastly more secure and can (probably) be extended to allow for most addons.

At Mozzila they need to prioritize many different things and I can understand how a constant push to make the browser leaner is foundamental. (especially in cases like RSS feeds)
