My goal was to have the class look like is has the same functionality at 1.0, 
but instead accommodate for local javadoc changes
to point out what the user should be doing. That said, it’s entirely possible 
that I wasn’t precise enough with the “@deprecated” messaging
due to lack of familiarity with the issue at hand.

It is however unclear to me how these changes would be breaking as the methods 
exposed on the class don’t change signature or 
accessibility quantifier, but I could have overlooked something.

Regardless, it was just an idea, and I figured the easiest way to make a 
proposal was to push a commit up. Like I said I’m a +0 on it, and if 
we come up with a better mechanism, then I’m on board with that.

Cheers,
-Rob
