It's on my mental list of things that we want to kill off eventually as soon as the remaining users stop replying to questions about it. In fact I should really turn that into a properly maintained list in Documentation/... that contains any options that someone has asked about removing in the past, along with the reasons for keeping it around and a time at which we should ask about it again.
