I can understand that position on the depreciation in this case. From someone
new to this set of libraries, 'deprecated' was read in the usual sense of 'not
needed at all' or 'to be avoided like the plague' or 'might go away in the near
future' (even though there is an existing implementation available). 

The difference between the CMs and the clients should really be made clear in
the places where the complex Presence is marked as deprecated to avoid this
confusion for others.

To address the immediate need, I have made that one-line change to take
advantage of the implementation in the mixin (and thanks for doing that work
for us!).

Graceful failures with clear indicators of why are much better than abrupt with
 hard to determine reasons.
