You can be sure that all libraries that can be loaded on demand are loaded on demand. It is possible with larger code changes to make more libraries loadable on demand, but nothing you can do just by tweaking a bit in a load libary hook. Moreover, the reduction in memory foot print will be quite small as the "big ones" amongst the libraries will still be needed. Large fractions of "UI code" (dialogs etc.) have been converted to be loaded on demand a long time ago and they won't be used in the headless scenario anyway. So any major step towards a smaller memory footprint would be a complete rearrangement of the content of the big libraries. Some plans have been made about possible new code distributions but they haven't been put into action.
