The problem in this case being that we didn't use to issue deprecation
warnings. ;)

In any case, I personally don't care if it's removed in 2.10 or 2.11.

I don't understand that logic. Zope 2.9.0 issued deprecation warnings
for these. Why should we not remove it in 2.11.0? That is two major
versions later.
