Hopefully never for many bits.  I think several things have been
tagged unnecessarily.

If something is not very nice, then by all means shunt it off to a
corner of the manual and advertise the good way.  But taking stuff out
is bad.

One stable is much too short.  Surely it's not reasonable to expect
everyone to review all their programs on every stable release.

My point is that many bits in question aren't and weren't broken.  Not
too nice, sure, but not utterly hopeless.
