Development branch Sketch uses 99% of program storage space. What's next?

I feel that in near future after checking out new commits from development branch the compiled sketch will be greater then 0x1F000 (0x20000 - 0x1000). I am a little worried about this. What is taking so much in firmware size? Is it possible to reduce it? As far as I understood, by default Arduino builds sketches with -Os optimization.

    We even exceed it so you would need a Mega 256:-) What takes much are the translations. Here you can limit to 1 language and reduce 40kb I think. User interface is the biggest part, having graphic display it is even worst. Other big thing is eeprom, but you won't want to miss that. Many function require it.

    Looks like it might be possible to shorten various of the less used strings to possible good effect in this context, at least for the moment.
