I wasn't referring to the virtual impossibility of rekeying systems. I know exactly how impossible that is. I was strictly talking about the IdP code we're talking about here, not the overall deprecation of the "abstract" attribute.

When the time comes, I don't know that we're going to pull the code. It's hard to envision doing so right now. What I do know is, we're not documenting it and not supporting it, which isn't a change, and we will keep the warning because we're not promising not to yank it if something unexpected happened.
