Why should it be deprecated?
Oh, are you wondering because I said that @{foo[bar]} was no longer
valid? Just because @{foo[bar]} is gone doesn't mean that @{foo}[bar]
is gone. It's just that, in strings, @{foo}[bar] means something a
little different now, namely, exactly what it means outside of
strings. But @{[...]} should work just the same as it did, in the
absence of any subscripts or method calls on the right.
