Just for the records: I can't remove it as long as it's used by  
existing commands, and there's no “wrapper” or similar that provide  
the exact same functionality (in the HTML window).

It's deprecated because I want new stuff to use the HTML output  
option (as the “separate window” is rather flawed, and not subject  
for any short-term improvements).
