That mode is an optional extra by default its turned off. That sort of 
thing has been tried a few times before and has never really caught on 
for the reasons you give.
The default mode for it basically just changes a few settings within 
firefox to turn things like http-pipelining on, They are off by default 
because some webservers don't support it (i've never come across one), 
If you are on a high latency connection to a server who likes putting 
their buttons as pictures it can make the difference between a 10 second 
page load time and a 40 second page load time.

You can do it all through about:config but this way is easier ;-> If 
somebody knows of something that does the same tweaks without all that 
other crap i'd like to hear it.
