Found this (subject) in mail-archive. But many (good) ideas 
aren't in current manpage...

Should I just leave a hint to the docs (aop,vop,npp) or decribe the 
options (mf,tv,..)?

The "really obsoleted ones" from code (-vaa_dr, -o, divxq, maybe 
more). For future: obsoleted ones in docs too. Which options 
should be called obsoleted (I ment -master but are -x/-y/etc 
already to be called obsoleted)?

I know, that this is Gabu's "territory" ;-)
