Comment (by helen):

 Bringing over what I said in Slack:

 >: well, even though it’s hidden, i think we may still need to take a
 multi-step approach where we prompt about the plugin now and then actually
 remove code in the next release.
 >: the plugin HAS to at least have the appearance of being maintained and
 people ready to support it, though.
 >: even though we don’t even really support it in core, the switch over
 will bring attention and it’s pretty rude to just leave people stranded
 >: another thought would be to reply to the first post-by-email after the
 update to 4.4 with an email letting them know, in case they don’t log into
 the admin.
