Imho it was removed because it was 'not good enough'. am not sure whe/if it will be back, but it will probably be back in a different form

Hi.

First, these were removed because on one hand, they weren't really maintained anymore, and that is because they weren't used much.

The chances that we reintroduce them in a later release are honestly limited, but this also depends on popular request. If you can get other people interested in this to post here, along with what they did / would use it for, please do, by all means !

In the meantime, the best move would in my opinion be to make this feature a community extension for those who actually need it. Anyone interested ?

That was the intention when it was disabled (move it into it's own extension so people that actually use it can more easily contribute and improve it), but just like the shop module, these things take time to move out of the kernel..
