I think this is indeed preferable to releasing an API we already expect to 
deprecate, however I think we're overstating the difficulty here.  We haven't 
debated the parameter naming much at all, and we can easily land this in 
4.0-beta.  If [~e.dimitrova] doesn't have the time, and 4.0-beta is an 
acceptable window to land the work, I can take a look in a few weeks.

> We have a bunch of inconsistent names and config patterns in the codebase, 
> both from the yams and JVM properties.  It would be nice to standardise the 
> naming (such as otc_ vs internode_) as well as the provision of values with 
> units - while maintaining perpetual backwards compatibility with the old 
> parameter names, of course.
> For temporal units, I would propose parsing strings with suffixes of:
> {{code}}
> u|micros(econds?)?
> ms|millis(econds?)?
> s(econds?)?
> m(inutes?)?
> h(ours?)?
> d(ays?)?
> mo(nths?)?
> {{code}}
> For rate units, I would propose parsing any of the standard {{B/s, KiB/s, 
> MiB/s, GiB/s, TiB/s}}.
> Perhaps for avoiding ambiguity we could not accept bauds {{bs, Mbps}} or 
> powers of 1000 such as {{KB/s}}, given these are regularly used for either 
> their old or new definition e.g. {{KiB/s}}, or we could support them and 
> simply log the value in bytes/s.
