Description

Right now it's easy to overlook that some API is deprecated or removed, for example the .load() method. Sometimes it's best to add explicit wording, for example jQuery.unique() is replaced by jQuery.uniqueSort(). However it would be nice to have some sort of standard visual for these APIs. Is a modal or inline dialog that can be dismissed/collapsed too intrusive? Perhaps a watermark?

Define a consistent visual treatment for deprecated or removed APIs, then document or demonstrate the agreed behavior; the issue does not name files or tests.
