Deprecation Notice

was added to the Selector Playground documentation section with the release of Cypress 15.0.0, there was no mention of this point in the Changelog for [email protected]. The blog Cypress 15: The foundation for what’s next also makes no mention of the deprecation.

To at least provide documentation of the changes in the changelog, I suggest to add the milestones of deprecation and removal to the relevant changelog sections:
