> my view:
> - too many diff ways to do the same thing? obsolete the old "use(){}" usage
> - too many AST annotation? discard some other less popular one
> - "@Use annotation would be less granular than use() / backward compatiability"?  so mark the old usage as obsolete but still support it and remove it in 2.0.
