another thing : doesn't that imply that you have to install the
deprecated plugin before the DepPlugins Plugin jumps up an says "you
shouldn't ha' done that jimmy ..." (presumably before breathing
alcohol at you and pissing in your flower pots).

All that is really needed is that instead of installing something and
having the Cat::Plugin::MST say "don't use that" on this list, there
is a master list someplace. At least then, a noob should only make the
mistake once ...

and I don't see why it's harder, frankly, to maintain such a list on a
wiki than in the code of a plugin. I really dislike the idea of
allocating memory to code that is just stopping me do something that I
ought to know about anyway.
