Thank you. An EN for 14.0 and 14.1 (as suggested in your review) is
certainly warranted.

As for the path forward, what do folks think about changing the
warning into an error in main in the near future (prior to 15.0)? That
would provide about four years of releases that emit the warning,
hopefully enough time for users to notice and update their
configuration.
