Yeah, but we won't *know* if we're going to eliminate anything in
3.0 until we've had GLISS.
The plan was already to finish GLISS, then release 2.16.0, then
spend two weeks (or whatever) merging all the syntax changes, then
release 3.0.0. It would be more work to add new syntax to 2.16.0
and save all the removals for 3.0.0, but if there's a serious
desire[1] for this, I'm happy to support it.
[1] NB: as always, I use a strict definition of "desire", as in
"the amount of effort that somebody is willing to use". Saying
stuff like "I really wish that we could end world hunger, but I'm
not going to volunteer or donate anything" seems like complete
bunk to me.
