None of this is absolutely necessary. jQuery works as-is, and the changes
may break existing code, so the easiest path is to leave everything alone.
The issue is whether we can make changes to the jQuery API that make it more
consistent, intuitive, and easier to learn. Changes to accomplish that will
probably remove things from the core or change names, but as long as there
is a plugin for migration I don't see a problem with that.

The other issue is that jQuery can't stay light and continue to accumulate
functionality in its core. A year from now I would be sad if jQuery core had
bulked up to the size of prototype or some of the other frameworks. Losing
weight is never easy. The whole idea of the plugin architecture is to let
people add the functionality they need and leave out the stuff they don't
use. Some of the stuff in the core may not deserve to be there, but it can
certainly live on inside a plugin.
