Comment (by kmtracey):

 I'm not much of a fan of deprecating without removing either as I'm not a
 big fan of nanny warnings. If I know what I'm doing, have read the doc and
 understand the limitations of what I'm using, I don't really want the code
 nagging me that what I'm doing is "unclean". Bleh. Near as I can tell the
 straightforward do-it-yourself implementations are going to be equally
 vulnerable to gotchas...how is forcing people to try doing it themselves
 any better?

 For the alternatives proposed: are they going to be immune from the
 gotcahs of the existing implementation? If not then why bother?
