Regardless of what has been done in prior versions, it seems to me the
cleanest solution still is to remove a number of markup commands that
we cannot or do not want to support with Cairo.
I don't see any markup commands other than \postscript
and \epsfile that we cannot fully support in Cairo.
Any number bigger than zero represents a "breaking change" for me, and
it's not the sort of change that can be fixed by convert-ly or even
manually because there is no (general) equivalent.



Oh, I was not trying to comment on whether we should bump the major
version (I have no opinion on that), just on which deprecations
actually have to be made.



The situation for these is that they are only partially
supported, they only work for PS/EPS output. I see no
point in removing them entirely, we can just deprecate
calling them for non-PS/EPS output.
I don't understand the desire to keep something half-working...



No strong opinion here, but it gives an escape hatch to obtain PDFs
with embedded EPSes, by generating PS output and converting
to PDF yourself, which may ease the transition for some people.
