You want a major version bump on very widely used software just to remove something that causes a minor confusion on the rare occasion it is used? In what world does that sound like a good idea?
It's one thing to make a change like this along with a bunch of other breaking changes, but there is no way this justifies breakage by itself.

No, I want a deprecation warning, and an eventual removal when for 4.0 lands. >In what world does that sound like a good idea? In a world where we don't pile crap upon crap forever, like with POSIX, X-Windows, or C++.
