This bug will cover two things: 1. Removing the loadSubscript stuff that was added in bug 1416066. This stuff was pretty speculative, and never really resulted in any measurable wins. It also adds complexity to the AboutNewTabService. Considering it's also only exercised when the privileged about content process is enabled, it also is pretty untested. 2. Flipping the preference to enable the separate privileged about content process by default on Nightly. After enabling on Nightly, we might file a follow-up bug to let the new privileged about content process ride the trains out to release.
