Description
Could really use a clean way to mark specific field and parameters as deprecated. Currently I'm adding @\*\*[DEPRECATED]\*\* to the start of the comments for the field/parameter, but this doesn't change the name with a strike-through (as happens with functions).

Research direction
Start by locating the annotation handling for fields and parameters, then compare it with the existing function deprecation behavior. Done means a field or parameter marked as deprecated is displayed with a strikethrough, rather than requiring a comment containing [DEPRECATED].
