You could give it a try - it is not hard :-)

And there's no hurry for this, take your time.

I mean, all those which are unused. Optimally, you should look at the
tools and see whether they're using those exports and if not, remove
them. But no hurry here too, take your time.

My final goal is to have this up-to-date documentation of what is
exported and what is used by user tools so that people can look at it
first before carelessly exporting yet another thing.

Thx.
