Not preferred by me. Mind numbingly stupid I thought but that is to be expected when the people who are "designing" the functionality don't even know what the use case is.
Peter, you have been presented many opportunities to present your use cases. You never did. You also circumvented the way we do things in Avalon. Things like that require consensus, and I do not recall you even bringing it up. I like you on many levels, but what we came up with was a compromise. We need to live with it even if it is sub-optimal.
I highly recommend that you revert your change, because it slaps the community in the face. You could have been part of the discussion when it was being added in a more constructive way. I put it in there the way you had it--which sparked community discussion. The community decided that they preferred the method that is currently there.
Also, you need to think of our users. If a method is introduced in one release, and then deprecated in the next--with no clear technical advantage--then they will start to get fed up with our stuff. I personally don't want to see that happen.
-1 to the change, esp in the manner in which it was done.
Feel free to put your use cases on the table.
