News vs. CGBlog and action.fesubmit.php

[milehigh]

I am trying to see what the difference is here between the action.fesubmit.php between News and CGBlog.

In News, action.submit.php is marked:
// calguy1000: this action is officially deprecated.

The functionality is almost exact in CGBlog and isn't marked deprecated, but it looks like the action in News has had more recent updates then the same action in CGBlog (CGBlog still references the deprecated CMSMailer module while News was updated to use the mailer class included in the core).

It appears to still work in both modules, but wondering what the longer term plan is for supporting that action. The default FE submit template needed some updating since the default sample template didn't work but once I did that it works fine.

I'm trying to stick with the News module for this functionality instead of having to introduce four additional modules for a single module action of action.fesubmit.php (CGBlog/CGExtenstions/CGSimpleSmarty/JQueryTools).
