Jack, can the yui-ext documentation generator somehow help us remove deprecated usages from our js code?
I see you have introduced an @deprecated tag, so I want to remove those usages from my code so that those features can be retired and removed to help keep the yui-ext codebase as clean as possible, making it easier and faster to maintain/enhance.
What is needed is for something as simple as the doc generator outputting a file containing strings to search for. This would just contain the name of the deprecated property or function. We could then use this to feed to grep/whatever.
With no compiler to point these usages out to us, people could go on using deprecated things for ever, and you might never get top remove them!
