Yeah, IDEK what's up with the timing on its disappearance. Git says the core1 code was changed to hide that option in the UI in 2011, so you shouldn't have seen a recent change.
I can think of a few possibilities... Maybe themes that were saved/compiled into the system before a certain date kept the old setting visible, but if anything ever caused them to get recompiled, they'd lose it even if their code didn't necessarily change, and then maybe something in the code push caused those themes to get rebuilt. Maybe some themes overrode a property somehow to restore it to the UI, but other themes didn't. Stuff like that. Who knows. Main thing is, glad it's working for you in the "new" spot.
