Assuming we did it like last time (when query.php was replaced with api.php),
we would allow the two APIs to co-exist for a period of time, but with
a declared
end of life for the old interface.

Although considering that the number of people using api.php is many factors
more than were ever using query.php--the sunset period should be much much
longer this time.
