Is the command-line 'cocos' console interface going away?

In the 3.10 announcement it sounds like the ‘cocos’ GUI tool is becoming the preferred way to manage projects. http://cocos2d-x.org/docs/cocos/cocos/

It is nice to provide a GUI, but there are some times where you need a command-line / console interface. Scripting, and other forms of build automation, are the main examples that come to mind.

So my question is: are there plans to stop supporting the old command-line ‘cocos’ interface? (And if so, can I request that the team reconsider this, and continue to support the command-line ‘cocos’ console tool?)

I don’t see it going away anytime soon. We still need this tool and so many people use it.

Cocos GUI tool is using command line underneath, so it will actually improve command line instead of stop supporting it.
