I always feel bad about resurrecting ancient threads 😕

Thoughts about adding `getTagValue` and [`writeToTag`](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/system-tag-writetotag/8313) to the [deprecated](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DEP/system.tag+deprecated) list?

They're still used as examples in current (7.8-8.1) [docs](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/dosearchsite.action?cql=siteSearch+~+%22system.tag.gettagvalue%22&queryString=system.tag.gettagvalue) btw
