I am wary of using deprecation as a way of brushing things under the carpet,
mainly because we have no real plans to have it mean anything. We have discussed
how to show it to the reader better in documentation, but thats a bit of a figleaf.
Unless we really put time limits on the life of features, and actually remove them
on some date,  I don't see the value.
