Comment (by Fab1en):

 Replying to [comment:37 celloexpressions]:
 > Twenty Ten through Fourteen still call `wp_title()`, and thus generate
 notices whenever debug is on now. That should probably be fixed; at least
 by conditionally calling it and adding the theme support when older
 versions of WP still need to be supported.
 >
 > Also, when the notice is thrown, it's shown in the `<title>`, which
 seems pretty bad as less technically inclined users won't notice it but it
 could cause major SEO (and other) issues over time. While they shouldn't
 have debug on, I'd still be concerned about the implications of throwing
 deprecated notices here because people may have debug on due to various
 reasons (that they're likely unaware of).

 Good point @celloexpressions ! I agree that this could have bad effects,
 even for the more tech aware WordPress users. Checkout @wonderboymusic
 blog (referenced in his WP profile) to see it in action ;)
