Removing it sounds too drastic - especially as we have had people on
the mailing list using it  deliberately fairly recently.  If you really do want
to remove this code, then adding a deprecation warning to the plain text
parser for the next release would be a more gentle route.

I think there is still some benefit in having the plain text parser, and that
it could be fixed to cope with current multi-query files without too much
pain.  Maybe I should try this weekend...

Anyone want to voice their opinion?
