We load this jsm at startup, to register some event and message listeners. This could possibly be moved into ContentObservers.js and only access PluginContent.jsm via a shim, to avoid loading it. This will be trickier than the other cases I've looked at because it looks for events like pagehide and pageshow that will happen even without plugins, so you'd have to track some kind of state in ContentObservers to know if there was anything worthwhile to do. It is also possible that enough people have Flash installed that this isn't worth fixing, if they'd need to load the .jsm anyways.
