Thanks. So yes it is still there (just not by default) and works. This
solves my immediate problem. :)
Anyway, I understand that it is deprecated and my go away or stop
working soon. It still being at 3.6 certainly also points in that
direction. Will there be a replacement? Or is it not going away soon
after all?
