<p>I would normally fight tooth and nail against removing an API call without also bumping the API version number, allowing people time to upgrade etc. But I've been working for a long time on refactoring to allow us to support API version transition periods, with no end in sight in the near term.</p>
<p>Given this is bust, has vulnerabilities, isn't going to be fixed, and nobody is really going to miss it, then I'm happy to see it removed now.</p>
