We probably cannot help it.
It would be a massive change that we should not risk for 2.0, 2.1 or 2.2
(in my opinion).

I am not sure how much of the code is actually used for fbview only.
Some of it is used by freebusy and resmgr. 
If you would want to autoconfiscate it I expect this not to be too difficult
as the structure of the code will be similiar.

Not really.. :/

First find out which code is used by resmgr and freebusy.
In a test installation you could search the files for includes
for dependencies and then verify the analyis by deleting the parts
that you think are fbview only.
This way it should get smaller.
