We have hundreds of blocks, some of which were generated for some particular event and are no longer needed, but there is no way I can find to tell if a block is in use. Most of our blocks are listed as disabled, i.e. not in a region, but actually on a panel page or truely unused. If would be nice if the blocks admin page distinguished these two cases.

That would be nice. :) Until then you can write a counter into hook_preprocess_block() and record when they are loaded. After a sufficient amount of time using the site and getting crawled you should have a few with 0 counts and feel safe deleting them. It's a clumsy workaround but the best i can think of off the top of my head. Panels custom content for the win!
