Agree with Markku's post 100%. I have said I would support deprecation
but certainly not before solutions to replaced what deprecation takes
away are developed. There certainly are some issues with the scoped
architecture and there also is the issue of private addresses with an
architectural limitation to make them unroutable, please see one of my
posts on the IETF list recently.

"Just hijack a prefix that nobody else uses" is not an option and
deprecation, should it happen, needs to provide a replacement for what
it takes away _before_ it eventually happens.
