Well, I should have been stopped exactly here. Both contenteditable=true and execCommand ARE parts of a W3C recommendation:  
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/editing.html#editing-0

Which, in the case of cE=true, it specs it (minimally) but in case of execCommand, it points back to the Editing TF.

So, one option maybe be:

 * Warning that for cE=true no further work will be done on it (no deprecation, just freezing).
 * Deprecate execCommand (and similars) without spec’ing them, as they are not spec’ed in a recommendation but are mentioned.
