@trkurc Thank you for taking the time for your thorough review!
I'll go through everything you raised separately and will amend the pull
request.
You are totally correct that I forgot about backwards compatibility. In
that case I would add deprecation notices to the affected methods instead so
they can be removed in a later version. I did a quick search just now but
didn't see a policy on this.
Assuming this makes the 1.4 release could the removal happen in 1.5 or does
it need to wait until 2.0 or do you have any other policy?
