[Cuis] Use of #deprecated: and/or #deprecatedExplanation:

[Casey Ransberger]

Juan: I believe in Pharo they have deprecation warnings. There's a
preference to turn them off, and IIRC the first time you hit a deprecated
method with them enabled, the system complains (can't remember if it's a
dialog or a debugger or what.)
