What I did is to search for deprecated methods. Deprecated explicitly in 4.3 without logging => add logging and add info that it will be deprecated in 4.5, deprecated in 3.8, 4.0 or 4.1, it's enough 
time since it is deprecated and I added logging + info that it will be removed in 4.4. That's arbitrary but as said, the +2 rules exist for ages even if "never" applied.

I have 10 other patches pending on my disk but I'll wait till some agreement is found because creating them is time consuming but is OK somehow, but creating the bug tracker entry and preparing the 
RFC for the mailing list is even more time consuming. I would like an agreement on what to do and then propose a single RFC with multiple patches if it's OK.
