beginning of a release cycle (i.e. do it soon, but for 0.11) gives people
more time before the code is actually removed. I also don't see why we need
to be in a hurry, it's a simple code cleanup. Finally, it should be done
only when the new improvements to qr are merged. Which is very soon I guess.
