Bug 1122066 introduces a proper collection mechanism for telemetry data that is not constantly pushed. We need to port the few users of "gather-telemetry" over to that: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=gather-telemetry

Morphing this into an investigation what the existing users of "gather-telemetry" need and whether we can e.g. just switch them to pushing their data to Telemetry instead.

When does gather-telemtry run? Do we ensure to only run it at idle times?

(In reply to :Ehsan Akhgari (super long backlog, slow to respond) from comment #3) > When does gather-telemtry run? Do we ensure to only run it at idle times? Yes, "gather-telemetry" is fired on "idle-daily": https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/17d8a1e278a9c54a6fdda9d390abce4077e55b20/toolkit/components/telemetry/TelemetrySession.jsm#1988
