So not only is something like `buffer-substring-filters' to be
considered obsolete (the case since Emacs 24), but also a var
like `filter-buffer-substring', whose doc refers to the fact
(since Emacs 24) that it uses "obsolete variable
`buffer-substring-filters'."

And what about a function, such as `filter-buffer-substring',
whose implementation and doc string makes use of such a var?
What is being recommended now for someone who wants the
functionality of `filter-buffer-substring' - just roll your own?
