At the end of last year, Daniel started to remove IE6/7 specific code from the SDK and make simplifications based on that; especially for the deferred bindings. We had some progress on it (see some examples [1]) though there are still work to do and looking at our plans it doesn't look like we will able to invest much time into it any time soon.
So if you love cleaning up code and making things simpler and also want to be a good GWT citizen, you are highly encouraged to help out :) Please don't forget to attach IE6 topic to your patches as it helps to track them. To find such code, searching the code base with keywords (e.g. IE6. IE7, IE, ActiveX etc) is your best bet. Please always double check that the code or the workaround is only needed for IE6/7. If you encounter cases where the workaround is only required by IE8, please also add a comment for that so we can easily find it when the time comes. I don't know how many people would be interested in this work but just in case to avoid duplicate work, please update this thread after you invest some time into the patch.
