       copy the name of the feature in a file specially dedicated for that
       purpose, .obsolete_features_used or whatever.

   Users are unlikely to notice that this file exists.  With that name,
   they won't even see it in directory listings.  Unless you can design
   something to call their attention to it strongly, it may as well not
   exist.

In addition to what I said in my previous message, we could have a
menu item under "Help" for visiting the file and one for listing all
obsolete features.  C-h o is undefined and "o" being the first letter
of obsolete, we could bind it to a command for visiting the file (the
same as the one invoked by the menu item), while C-h O could list all
obsolete features.

Sincerely,

Luc.
