The deprecation warning in Zope 2.8 says:

-c:1: DeprecationWarning: This will be removed in ZODB 3.6:
   use transaction.get() instead of get_transaction().
   transaction.commit() is a shortcut spelling of 
transaction.get().commit(),
   and transaction.abort() of transaction.get().abort().

Zope 2.9 comes with ZODB 3.6. So the behaviour is correct in some way but I 
agree that the deprecation should continue longer. It would be save to 
remove it in Zope 2.10.
