The directive isn't "gone"; it turns into the attributes on the Python nodes
that you're talking about. Presumably that's what's used to render it into
HTML. I believe it was Doug Hellmann who indicated to Jean-Paul that this was
possible.
Perhaps you mean "there's no public API for constructing the node tree
representation of an arbitrary directive"?
