I am a head of team of 20+ brilliant software engineers, who doing great things on a daily basis. When I being asked "What kind of code do the best of your team are writing?", here's a canned response: "The best engineers are deleting code, not writing it". For software project with size and age of Firefox, deleting obsolete or redundant code is universally good. It is hard but necessary task. I am okay with completely stop using FTP for that cause. Or eventually fire up Chrome FWIW.
