Now, we have a dilemma: either remove them in 3.2 (which was intended initially), make the version 4.0 instead of 3.2 (which will be misleading for users after 3.0) or create an abomination of QuickForm4. Removing them will shave 10kb from the main include file, which is Good.

So wouldn't here a slot based solution a party solution? So you at least don't have to release a 4.0 but a 3.2..?

I think that slot-based solution is better than mandatory installation of different versions into different directories. Thus we let users decide what to do with the packages. One can install the package into slot 1, test it, then upgrade the package in the main slot. Or one can install older version of the package to the slot 1 and install the package that depends on it. More power to the users.
