I think that package developers just need to get into the habit of turning
#showDeprecationWarnings on as part of the process of checking for
compatibility with a new release of Squeak.  I don't think it's necessary
to be constantly informed that you're using a deprecated methods - just
that you be able to easily catch such uses during the release process. So
the preference seems right to me.
