If it is unsupported, which it is as far as I can tell, removal is not such a bad option, IMHO. Certainly the website presents it as a former flagship application, but it is first and has an important sounding name. Without doubt it should be deprecated and stated clearly as being utterly unsupported and moved down the list at least as far as LCDBible.
