Comment(by robe):

 Pierre,

 I'm personally fine with living with these signatures forever. There are a
 whole bunch of worse signatures we are living with that irritate me much
 more than this (like the assumption of band 1 if none specified in some
 functions and assumption of all in others).  My main concern is people
 have started using raster in production, and this may screw them (screw me
 in fact since now I've got to check my code to make sure I'm not using
 them).  It's one thing to add things, it's much worse to take them away
 during beta phase.

 However if you feel strongly about it, you should take them out of the
 documentation and then perhaps in 2.1 or 3.0 we can remove them.
