MPxDeformerNode missing from maya python api 2.0?

[mvn882]

Maybe I'm going blind but I just can't find it in the new API, was it removed on purpose?

On the cpp side it's under OpenMayaAnim, but on the python side it's nowhere to be seen, are we restricted to using the old API in python?

In my experience OM2 is an aborted project and there are a lot of things missing from it.  I only use OpenMaya and not OpenMaya2 unless there's something specific in it I need.  I wish they'd put a big "deprecated, don't use this" notice on the documentation if they aren't going to finish it.
