Please add here a pointer to the ELisp manual where this is described,
as the text otherwise is too terse to speak for itself.
Also, the heading line should be a single complete sentence, and the
NEWS entry should be marked "+++", since the manual is being updated
by the same changeset.
(I have no opinion on the change itself, although it strikes me as
unusual to delete a feature rather than fix it.)
Thanks.
