Of course nobody use --minimal build, because it is too lightweight to be
useful in a real world application. But it is useful to prevent breaking
ENABLE(...)/USE(...) guards.

If somebody try to use a function outside ENABLE(FOO) guard which is defined inside ENABLE(FOO) guard, it will cause link fail on the --minimal bot.

The maintanance cost of it is minimal. Usually it's more than 
enough to ping the author and he/she will fix the breakage.

The question is now if we want to fix Qt-WK2 build with 
disabled ENABLE_NETSCAPE_PLUGIN_API or not. If no, we
can simple use minimal bot with --minimal --no-webkit2.
