Here's what we're going to do for v2, targeting a release in January or February 2020:
For reference, the primary trigger for version 2.0 is the native-promise-only change, with which we fully drop support for IE 9/10, even though that support has been eroding severely over the last couple of years. This change is driven by a desire to remove function constructors from as many of our bundles as possible for security reasons, as tracked in #897. Since we're doing a v2, we're trying to shed as much deprecated stuff as we can without being otherwise too-disruptive.
