Just to clarify one point, because I don't want to sound pushy and I may have misunderstood you.
I was originally talking about marking as deprecated and suggested a timeline for removing it. I interpreted your reply as a comment for both (deprecating and removing). If you commented about the deprecation (ie: marking the classes as deprecated), then, please ignore my reply: I got your point.
