According to Kannan Flyweb is likely to be removed. Filing this bug to cover doing that.
The front-end code was implemented entirely as a System Add-on, so it can be removed very easily by getting rid of this line:

http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/1a4a26905f923458679a59a4be1e455ebc53c333/browser/extensions/moz.build#24

And then wiping out the flyweb subdirectory under browser/extensions.
Kannan, I removed the bare minimum of code that I could find is directly related to FlyWeb. It's very possible that I forgot to remove some interfaces that were only used by FlyWeb. If you can think of any I'd appreciate pointers.

Does this need an intent to unship?

Looks like I no longer have review powers, so you'll need to find another person. It might be worth trying maliu or nalexander.
