1)  There are definitely plans/proposals to kill it off: see 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457102 and 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=388704

2)  It looks like it was effectively disabled when we moved to 
mercurial, because the actual implementation lived in 
extensions/xmlextras and wasn't actually imported into mozilla-central.

I think given that it's been several years and people are just noticing 
it's gone, we should go ahead and remove the pretense of supporting it 
(as well as the various code internally that claims to be trying to use 
xpointer).  Jonas?
