Question - IDE UWP

Does anyone know what's going on with UWP? I know win8 apps have been depreciated for UWP in GMS2 but I see all the win8 and windows phone functions are still present in the IDE.

Do the win8/phone functions work with UWP or are they just for backwards compatibility. Admittedly I have never published using either one of them but find it confusing seeing them listed.

I feel they should have been dropped, renamed or replaced with new functions uwp_livetile etc..

We will look through those and update them with a set of uwp_ functions, some of them do work but we will ensure that they are renamed correctly to make it obvious which ones can be used.
