AFAIK, ISOLatin1AccentFilter was deprecated because ASCIIFoldingFilter provides 
a superset of it mappings.

I haven't done any benchmarking, but I'm pretty sure that ASCIIFoldingFilter 
can achieve a significantly higher throughput rate than MappingCharFilter, and 
given that, it probably makes sense to keep both, to allow people to make the 
choice about the tradeoff between the flexibility provided by the 
human-readable (and editable) mapping file and the speed provided by 
ASCIIFoldingFilter.
