Hi
I think that's an interesting idea.
People who do use deprecated code in their apps would need to include
*-deprecate.js files in their builds but I guess this is something we can
document in the release notes.
For classes I guess we would have lines like
"MyClass.prototype.myDeprecatedFunction = function() { ... };" in the
-deprecate.js files.
I'd see this as a smooth transition towards actually removing deprecated
code, both for users and us developers.
What do others think about it?
