Thanks for the PR. Other than the User Guide needing a note about the old syntax it looks good.

Because #5662 is targeted for RF 8.0, this PR cannot be merged until we start its development. That happens latest at the end of this year, so there's a risk for conflicts due to changes to code, tests or docs. Changes to docs are very likely, because we are planning to migrate the whole User Guide to new tech.

Anyway, we can leave this PR open and waiting for RF 8 development to start. We can then resolve conflicts or just redo the whole PR if needed.
