</span>Deprecate and remove, please. We've been removing these sorts of things<br>
over time, and nova hooks have been ignored in that process. But really,<br>
making them more rigid is going to get in the way over time, trying to<br>
continue to honor an interface that codifies internals at a certain<br>
point in time, and leaving them as-is will just continue to generate<br>
issues like the quoted bug.<br>
<br>
I don't "lean" on deprecation, I feel strongly that these should go away.<br>
