The API stability contract is documented here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/misc/api-stability/ -- Everything documented is considered part of the API, the rest is private.So yeah, it seems like you are remembering that wrong. Your suggested deprecations look okay. I have no strong feelings on `sanitize_address/forbid_multi_line_headers` -- if you want to deprecate instead of simply remove that is okay with me.
