I agree, though I'm not sure how to go about fixing it.   I believe the 
documentation is autogenerated from the source (extracting from marked-up 
comments), and the deprecation info is from a simple #ifndef 
GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED.   So I don't think there's an easy way to add this to 
the place in the docs (which is a shame).

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, please!
