Since nothing key seems to be using them any more we should just be
able to remove them. 

We should probably make a note in the migration guide for the next
release and check the variables aren't mentioned in the manuals but at
a quick look I don't think they are. The migration guide is still being
worked on for the current release so queuing the change might confuse
things more than it helps right now :/.
