I respectfully disagree, and prefer to keep going on with the 
current deprecation and cleanup policy: Scott Meyers' DConf 2014 
keynote all the way down.

On the other side, there's no problem at all in resurrect dead 
features, when living without them proved to be a pain (I agree 
with Rikki, hex strings).
