Yes, I think putting the compatibility section headings in our main
documentation flow will make it too hard to read and cause unnecessary
complexity, but if we have a separate section for them, adding the
section headings seems fine.  This way, we don't have to add a redirect
every time we add a new entry.

Agreed.  I just wanted something that could scale going forward, and be
easily identified as compatibility, so maybe one day we can remove them.
However, if they are in a separate section, we might never do that.
