I care about the interfaces, and how people think what the
interfaces mean.

The "removal" touches no working interfaces -- very
important -- this is not a removal (from some degree).

I'm going to draft a simple proposal anyway, and see if it's OK
for a TS/C++17.  Considering the implementation and adoption
period, the users (are there any?) should have enough time to
switch to a boost::dynamic_bitset, or even some replacement
we are going to provide in the standard.
