I like this.
As you've pointed out the deprecation is a bit harsh but it is certainly
something we can live with. I would however urge you to add additional
documentation e.g.
```
/**
* @deprecated
* explanation of why function was deprecated, if possible include what
* should be used.
*/
```
This looks really nice. ---
