Balancing deprecation of SourceSetOutput#classesDir and other parts of Gradle that only accept a dir (File)

Help/Discuss
1

SourceSetOutput#classesDir (single File ref) has been deprecated in favor of SourceSetOutput#classesDirs (FileCollection). However, many other parts of Gradle (e.g. I am working with OsgiManifest) accept just a single File reference as a source of classes.

When will such inconsistencies be rectified?
