It depends on how complicated the usage of browserify is. If it is very
simple, then it might make sense to use browserify-lite, anything even
slightly advanced and we would be better off packaging the real browserify.

Anything in particular you're interested in?

Possibly. The tokenizer I coded up should probably be fine, but maybe since
we already have uglifyjs packaged it would make sense to use that.
