My faith in Mozilla has dimmed a whole lot over the past few years, but if they feel like making Firefox worse, I don't think they need to do it this way. More code does mean more vulnerabilities, but that hasn't stopped them from adding a half dozen other features that could have been extensions. This one could actually be beneficial, as it would cut down on the performance requirements for users, especially mobile ones.
