And if this gets chosen as a fine way to do things, could we document it
in the DEV-GUIDE?

ie) Unwanted code is deprecated for the next major or minor release, and
removed in the major release following that.

so:

1.0 -> 2.0, Foo.foo is deprecated
2.0 -> 2.1, Foo.bar is deprecated
2.1 -> 3.0, Foo.foo and Foo.bar are both removed

or if it is such that we just need to do N releases between deprecation
and removal, specify that. Basically get something simple and effective
standardised to stop future debates.
