I've done that to Bio/Seq.py on the trunk (added two
FutureWarnings and docstring explanation). Assuming
this doesn't trigger any regressions, we'd need to work
on the documentation (in particular the tutorial, but also
perhaps a news post?) and fix the GA unit test before
the release.

If anyone on the dev list thinks this is a bad idea,
please speak up (sooner rather than later).

Thanks,

Peter
