I have voted no for a few reasons:

- Ideally, I'd like to be able to mark _anything_ as deprecated. In
particular, not being able to mark a _class/interface/enum/etc_ as
deprecated makes this far less useful.

- The "since" parameter is basically worthless to me. It's very easy to
find out the last version that wasn't deprecated. What would be far more
useful to a consumer is an argument indicating when something will be
removed (e.g. $toRemoveInVersion, $versionForRemoval, etc.). This helps me
as a user plan for the future.
