For ZODB objects I think its okay for now not to use deprecations and to use the upgrade tool, but for the imports of other things that were moved elsewhere, I still think we need to bug developers that they need to upgrade their code with deprecation warnings, so we can eventually remove old imports.
The new test runner can give such warnings for many indirect imports (for classes and functions, but not for instances). I also think that we should highlight the importance of documentation and communication for deprecation. Any tool is not a substitute for communication about changes. Regards, Martijn
