The idea of adding E_DEPRECATED now, and then removing it in PECL, is
not an opinion held by everyone.

The idea of moving it to PECL is not represented in the vote. But
it's something to consider as it's a real possibility. It could 
both symbolize that we are serious about not using ext/mysql, and 
considering most Linux distros would simply switch to offering the 
PECL version, it'd probably not break much. Worth thinking about, 
at least.

I'm not yet certain what we should do but this PECL topic is 
intriguing. Hopefully a few others will weigh in with their related
thoughts.
