eeek. it got committed. there was no response for etrunko's question... so i
thought it was abandoned.! indeed i rejected a similar style patch adding a
dummy api for something yet to be in upstream (magnifier stuff). efl is not a
dumping ground for every failed experiment by some company that didnt push
changes up early. i understand the desire to add just compat api/tag handling
BUT it isn't appropriate here. if the feature was abandoned or not yet accepted
upstream then fix the code/theme that uses an experimental "local only patch".

imho the right policy is to reject such patches always. sure - a full FEATURE
that was provided as a patch and that is later found not to be useful, if we do
a release with that feature/api even if not useful, we can't go back and remove
it, but we shouldn't ADD api's or tags in that from the very beginning are "not
useful".
