Comment (by joedolson):

 I can see some issues with the eventual removal of
 `wp_get_attachment_image_src`, since it's a very commonly used function,
 but that shouldn't stop  us from deprecating it and discouraging its use.

 I also agree that deprecating that function is out of this ticket's scope,
 and should be a separate ticket.

 I don't see it as very likely that expanding that function's return value
 would break code - it seems like just iterating blindly over the values
 wouldn't work, since the values are numerically keyed - they'd have to
 call specific key values. Regardless, I'd still prefer deprecation.

 In an ideal world, I'd want to remove the extra attributes from
 `wp_get_attachment_image_src` and only return src, but that's definitely
 not an option!
