I'm using the AbsoluteLayout in one of my apps and it can be useful. However, i think it'll be deprecated because the AbsoluteLayout is device(/screen) dependent. E.g., if a new phone comes out with a square screen instead of 320x480, your app starts to look funny. You can mitigate this somewhat by using 'dp' units, for example, instead of using 'px' units.
Although, all other measures (e.g. widths of views) can still be expressed in pixels, which is device dependent as well. So, why will AbsoluteLayout become deprecated and not the measures expressed in pixels?
