in actual code, as they would typically display as attached to the
character in front of them.
-=head1 Removed Deprecations
-
-The C<\cI<X>> construct is intended to be a way to specify non-printable
-characters. Previously it was deprecated to use it for a printable one,
-which is better written as simply itself, perhaps preceded by a
-backslash for non-word characters. Now this raises a warning, but not a
-deprecation. See
+=head2 C<\cI<X>> that maps to a printable is no longer deprecated
+
+This means we have no plans to remove this feature. It still raises a
+warning, but only if syntax warnings are enabled. The feature was
+originally intended to be a way to express non-printable characters that
+don't have a mnemonic (C<\t> and C<\n> are mnemonics for two
+non-printable characters, but most non-printables don't have a
+mnemonic.) But the feature can be used to specify a few printable
+characters, though those are more clearly expressed as the printable
+itself. See
