Citation needed. Without a written policy to that effect these things
are up for each project to decide. Jarek's rationale sounds perfectly
fine to me.

We have plenty of projects that provide such backwards compatibility
wrappers or otherwise put stuff in non-apache namespaces for various
reasons. See for example [1] or [2].
