I think the idea of marking functions as deprecated is great and the current way of throwing E_DEPRECATED error by trigger_error can be improved. In the current state. That's being said, I don't think that adding a deprecated keyword is the solution, since now we can write documentation and set a "@deprecated" mark. I think, that the best solution is the attributes concept that was rejected before and should be re-considered after the last releases changes and language improvements. A few built in attributes, such as <Deprecated> can be great. What do you think?
