David, 

I think this decision is very unfortunate, if I may speak for
the client developers. I guess many have built some browse UI
for use with jabber:iq:conference that is very practical
to reuse when testing out the MUC protocol. 
I agree that support for jabber:iq:browse should only be considered
temporary, and later phased out and replaced by disco.
But meanwhile, keep some sort of support for browse, at least as
a help in assisting client developers testing MUC.

Sounds like a reasonable compromise to me.

Hope this post is not completely out of sync...
