Comment (by Vika Apelsinova):

 Replying to [comment:5 cehoyos]:
 > Why?
 Because it is deprecated.

 > Don't you agree that we should at least wait some time before we update
 the code to output incompatible files by default?

 Please explain what you mean when you wrote about "output incompatible
 files by default"?

 Is there players that support A_QUICKTIME/QDM2 and/or A_QUICKTIME/QDMC,
 but not support A_QUICKTIME (without a trailing codec name)?

 BTW, MKVToolNix has always produced MKV files using A_QUICKTIME (without a
 trailing codec name) Codec ID according to specs.
