We currently use TwoWayView in various places across the app, a GridView in the TabsGridLayout class and various ListViews all over the place. We can simplify our code base considerably if we swap these all out for a RecyclerView [1]. RecyclerView is the next generation of ListView, using it will allow us to cut down on code clutter, create a unified way of displaying lists and benefit from a load optimisations and improvements. 1: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v7/widget/RecyclerView.html
Could this be a good contributor/intern project?

On my machine, the compiled TwoWayView classes takes up 114K – we should prioritize removing these instances: https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?string=extends+twowayview&find=mobile%2Fandroid&findi=&filter=^[^\0]*%24&hitlimit=&tree=mozilla-central For classes that extend TwoWayView (above), TabsListLayout is going to be removed soon but we can work on TabStripView.
