Well thank you! (I wrote it, and was told that it was no longer good enough)

The justification I got was that the superlongnamedvisitor had more potential for extensibility, that in theory it'd be able to handle filters better. Which I concede, as sqlencoder isn't designed for filters, but as of yet there's not much filter stuff in the visitor thing.

I was fine to have it deprecated since it doesn't make sense to have two things that do basically the exact same thing. I never got a clear explanation as to why it was written in the first place, I know it was for the WFSDatastore. But it's used in PostGIS now, which is when I got the above explanation.

Why is SQLUnpacker deprecated?

Looking at PostPreProcessFilterSplittingVisitor the only thing I can figure 
that it's doing that SQLUnpacker isn't doing is handling client-side 
transactions via a ClientTransactionAccessor.

Is there something fundamentally flawed about SQLUnpacker?  I do have to say 
that SQLUnpacker is MUCH more clearly and concisely written.
