I don't know why the feature was deprecated, is was deprecated a long time ago by Just.

I agree that the feature is convenient at times, but it is also different from how dicts are generally used. 

BTW. I'm in favour of removing the feature, not having this deprecated feature makes the library easier to understand and maintain.

P.S. plistlib was not introduced in 2.6, but in 2.3. In 2.3 it was part of the MacOS library (Lib/plat-mac) and in 2.6 it was migrated to the regular stdlib.
