+0. I hope the users won't get confused by the fact that "All macros"
doesn't show all macros. The use case I have in mind is when an user
upgrades XWiki and is looking for a macro he was using and that is now
deprecated. He won't know to select the Deprecated category unless he reads
the release notes.
Thanks,
Marius

Hi devs,
Needs:
* We need some “Deprecated” macro category so that users understand when a
macro is deprecated and are less tempted to use it
* We need to not show “Internal” macros by default to not “pollute” the
Macro list by default
Proposal:
* When the “All Macros” is selected display all macros *except* those from
2 categories: “Deprecated” and “Internal”.
* If the user needs/wants to use those macros, he’ll need to explicitly
select those categories.
* When we want to deprecate a Macro we move it from its category to the
“Deprecated” category, before removing it further in the future (when is to
be defined on an adhoc basis)
Technical details:
* Change https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-ckeditor/
blob/master/plugins/src/main/resources/xwiki-macro/macroSelector.js#L144
to implement this new behavior
WDYT?
Thanks
