Stephen Colebourne commented on LANG-1339:
------------------------------------------

In all plans we're discussing, the existing classes should be deprecated, so 
that should just be done.

The question then becomes whether to:

1) add a fixed version alongside the broken one now
2) alter the existing class incompatibly in v4
3) removed the existing class altogether in v4

If the functionality is to be kept, I'd choose option 1, as there is no 
guarantee that v4 will ever happen.

> Some classes depend on the java.desktop profile

> Commons Lang currently depends on java.desktop. This seems like an 
> unnecessary heavy dependency for a library like Commons Lang. We need to find 
> a way to fix this, without breaking bc. For more information see
