Description

It looks like one of the goals of this project is to reduce the bloat needed for a web-based code editor. I ran a quick coverage profile and found that about half of the bundle is not used during load or basic edit operations. I'm not sure how much of this truly dead code and how much was skipped because some features were not executed.

Are you interested in looking into this any further?

Research direction

Reproduce the coverage profile described for load and basic edit operations, using the issue's screenshot as context. Inspect the generated bundle to determine which reported-unused code is genuinely dead and which requires untested features; done means a measured, justified reduction in bundle size without breaking those features.
