So...  The last time that I personally used the "we're the only engine
shipping this feature, therefore it must be safe to remove" argument for
unshipping something, we ended up breaking a huge number of websites
(see bug 1255139 for details.)

As much as I'd like us to get rid of <isindex> as soon as we can, I
oppose doing so without first measuring its actual usage for Firefox
through telemetry.

This means that we can remove <isindex> a little bit later than what
we'd like, but I think that's justified when evaluating the risk over
potentially breaking websites in ways that cause pain for our users.

Sorry for being the naysayer here.  :-)
