Yes, we know many people relied on its capabilities, although it was a class in an internal package. But do not worry:
we have introduced a replacement in the <b>api package</b> that offers similar (and even more powerful) functionality.
The code is not backwards compatible, but the required changes should be minimal (eg the XML element is replaced by a
Java pojo representation of the element). Read more about it in the new 'Advanced' chapter of the userguide.
