Hello,

What do you think of deprecating HTML Link Parser and HTTP URL Re-writing
Modifier?

   - I am not sure they are widely used
   - Their design does not suit well for performance as :
      - they require Previous Response, as a consequence, they do not work
      in Distributed mode
      - they use a Dom parser + Tidy
      - They are  based on old HTML parser so I don't think they work
   properly with new HTML 5 code
   - They suffer from old bugs:
      - https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17252
      - https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59943 => It was not
      reported on this element, but investigation showed it was affected

We could ask question on User mailing list and twitter to see if it's used.
