David Murray,
I used to think what deprecation process in Python have to go trough PendingDeprectaionWarning to DeprecationWarning and removing in next next release at end. Is it right?
Also I thought what that trivial patch does not need to be published in tracker. Will do next time.

Terry J. Reedy, the message what you asked was made by GvR in 1995.
That functions can be used to point position in text widget (single-line Entry doesn't support it).

Now I think we need to deprecate that functions, but also add keyword-only parameters in widgets methods which can accept that ones.
Documentation need to be updated as well.

I'll make a patch for that.

Thank you for mentoring.
