Hmm, the philosophy would also say “don’t remove anything that wasn’t deprecated in the previous major series and that doesn’t *strictly* need to be removed”. IOW, I’m in favor of keeping #:renamer in 2.0. (Actually I didn’t know about #:prefix. It’s undocumented, but dates back to 2003 AFAICS. #:renamer is undocumented too, but at least there’s one example in the manual. ;-)) > Does anyone use #:renamer differently? Not me. Thanks, Ludo’.
