I saw that as a next step, with the "official" deprecation of "save".
I thought we might want to advertise "push" a bit more before actually
officially deprecating "save" and sending the deprecation notice out
in the release notes.

OTOH, dropping it from the synopsis in the man page probably wouldn't
cause much issue, as "push" directly replaces it, and is easily
visible.  Not sure how slow we want to take the deprecation?
