It looks like the exclusive way has been marked deprecated in all
supported versions along with a note that it will eventually be
removed. If it's not going to be removed out of fear of breaking
backward compatibility, I think the documentation should be updated to
say that. However, unless there is something that is preventing users
from switching to the non-exclusive approach, I think it is reasonable
to begin thinking about removing it.
