+1 to making this available in a consistent way. We need need to support
the old client behaviour for at least a couple of cycles (maybe a bit
longer) and the burden of doing so is pretty low. I don't think however
that we can drop the REST API behaviour that quickly. 2 cycles for API
deprecation in the past has been considered an insufficent length of
time because of app breakage
