It isn't listed in the Release notes as one of the things we won't change but that method is defined in LifecycleBase which is extended by pretty much every Tomcat internal component that implements Lifecycle. It has been unchanged since it was introduced in the Lifecycle refactoring some 6+ years. So, while I can't guarantee the signature isn't going to change, I can say I am reasonably sure it won't change.
