Any feature is possible to dispose of provided two things are done.
1)  Provide a better alternative.
2)  Provide transparent translation options to the user.
An option in setup might read use opendos environment facility (y/n)?
A note should appear for the user explaining about the translation, 
and also explaining that if used the older alternatives will be supported
but translated on the fly.
This translation would only happen when needed though.
A good place for opendos to keep notes about this might be
in setver.exe too.
