We do our best to support them in present code.  We have to discourage
their use because there's no guarantee that future code will support
them.

Have you read what I wrote about 'pop-up-frame-alist'?  Already now
there's no guarantee that we can maintain these old options properly.
And I never tried to probe very deep in this area.
