Folks,
I see no reason to postpone this patch. I think we can proceed with this patch with the commitment to remove MVCC from the public API until the next release (2.11). These changes for sure must be well-documented but for the 2.10 release, we already have in the release notes [1] warnings related to MVCC discontinuation. I don't think we should add to the source code some kind of checkers. The MVCC marked with @IgniteExperimental since the 2.9 release, it also mentioned in the 2.10 release notes.
