Isn't that what the deprecate cycle exists for? I mean, it seems 
like a symmetrical issue to what you had with regular class 
override. And the argument that "it's not override on an 
interface" really seems straight up wrong to me, since you *can* 
write override - the compiler *already* agrees that implementing 
an interface method falls under the override umbrella.
