By repeating this untruth after I already corrected you is trolling. There was a very small chance you were just ignorant but thanks for admitting you knew exactly what you were doing and making Dave H. look silly. What I have (and others) wanted? What would make us happy? A warning placed on the port (a deprecation message but no expiration date) and others have suggested the same message at installation time in the form of a pkg-message. That's it. Nobody ever tried to remove it. You are like a die-hard smoker that doesn't want "Cancer kills" stickers on their cigarette boxes. Ask yourself why you don't want people to be informed?
