Description

This is not mentioned in the release notes, but other deprecated settings (like DATABASE_*) are.

Given that 1.3 is coming soon, what should be done here, if anything? Retroactively update the 1.2 release notes?

Updating the docs/releases/1.2.txt release notes on trunk and on the 1.2.X branch would be the best idea. Although it obviously won't help people reading the 1.2 docs from an existing tarball, it will help people using the docs online and those reading the docs with the next 1.2.X release.

#15102 involves a case of a user that got surprised by change of behavior because he didn't find in this in the release notes when updating his Django installation from 1.2 to in development 1.3.

Good catch!. The API change was introduced in r11862. We didn't mark the new class-based loader stuff accordingly on source:django/trunk/docs/ref/templates/api.txt (and source:django/trunk/docs/ref/settings.txt ?) either.
