Comment:

 This is a great first item to look at for instrumenting for browser
 performance.

 I am cc'ing Karsten and Iain here so they can follow along, since this is
 about performance metrics data collection and analysis.

 GeKo, can you lay out some options for us, about how we might implement
 this idea in practice? I can imagine the two main categories of approach
 are "hack something up ourselves" or "reuse the firefox telemetry stuff,
 but safely".
