I'm happy to update the manual, but I think I'd want more of a
consensus (not necessarily a formal RFC, but at least a straw poll)
for "soft deprecation" (to reuse the term we used for mysql_* before
it started generating E_DEPRECATED messages but was deprecated in the
manual) before making the change.
