Given that prog-indentation-context has never been part of a release,
this kind of "backward compatibility" is something we (until now) have
never really tried to preserve.
As for why we want prog-indentation-context gone rather than keep it for
backward-compatibility, it's because it requires major modes to follow
a convention different from the one that Dmitry suggests, so we end up
with two contradictory recommendations in terms of what major modes
should do.
Hence my question: what's the concrete benefit of keeping in
prog-indentation-context, i.e. of introducing in Emacs-26 a new variable
which according to the evidence I see is destined to being left unused.
