This is definitely worth doing.

If we intend to continue to support these, and particularly if we
anticipate more prefixed rules in future, I think that it would be
worthwhile providing developers with a more visible notice regarding
their status.  Something like the deprecation warning we use for DOM
APIs [1] could be useful.  Otherwise, I worry that the warnings will
go unnoticed.
