Without expanding too much, I'd say that we're not going to
advertise the availability of the function, so people would no longer
use that. However, removal of the function won't instantly break all
legacy scripts. As Hannes and I were discussing off-list, I feel it's
something that should be removed in a Generation 7 or 8 release, but
with the function availability still existing in PHP5, I believe it's
too soon.
