Patch Set 1: I would prefer that you didn't submit this

I would suggest to restrict API changes to major/minor releases as
much as possible.

Sure, but we really *need* this change.

How is that specific change (which just takes away a "published") in isolation needed now on libreoffice-4.0?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against unpublishing that old-style "documentation only" service at all (I wouldn't even be opposed to changing it while it was still marked published, if there is need for that). I just doubt it is useful to make this "announcement" in a micro release. (We will want to keep a track of what incompatible changes were made when, and things will be kept simpler if we try to keep such changes to x.y.0 releases.)

   (It is already committed to master towards LO 4.1 anyway AFAIU,
though the commit message lacks a "cherry-picked from" reference.)

And I'm confused about this comment.  Are we now required to include
"cherry-picked form" in each cherry-picked commit?  I hope not.

I think using "cherry-pick -x" to get that comment added doesn't hurt (though it's sure no big thing if one forgets specifying that "-x" either).
