For the next version of gdal for windows it would be helpful to know which features of gdal are used and needed by sf. GDAL itself is pretty huge and some drivers have many dependencies. Carrying around large DLL's with thousands of symbols makes everything slow so I would prefer to only include external libraries which are needed.
It would be helpful if some users could help me point out which drivers are absolutely required / nice to have / not needed for R users. Below some output from ./configure --help.
