2 is really just and extension of 3 - either way we deprecate them. In 2
we additionally provide a replacement.
I definitely think they *should* be deprecated.
Any replacement would necessarily go in the "legacy" provider I think.
If a replacement is not difficult I would favour that. But I could live
with (2).
