Could we just deprecate it instead of deleting it? :-) Best, Marcel

We could deprecate it, but then how would we know when it was safe to remove
it? After all, it hangs the image so it is unlikely that there have been any senders for a very long time. Granted, it might have some use for debugging something in MVC, so I guess that we could reactivate the "Display reverse; reverse" line and then move the method to 60Deprecated on the theory that this would do something noticeable in MVC. But I suspect that just dropping into an emergency evaluator might be better at that point.

Let's not mix up the discussions/issues here. :-) This one here should be a deprecation. Then we should start unloading older depracation packages from the Trunk. I vote for keeping only 50Deprecated, 51Deprecated, and (obvioulsy) 60Depcrecated in the next release. So, let's start removing those other *Deprecated packages right now. :-) Best, Marcel
