/**
- * Method that will force construction of a simple type, without trying to
- * check for more specialized types.
+ * Method that use by core Databind functionality, and that should NOT be called
+ * by application code outside databind package.
*<p>
- * NOTE: no type modifiers are called on type either, so calling this method
- * should only be used if caller really knows what it's doing...
+ * Unchecked here not only means that no checks are made as to whether given class
+ * might be non-simple type (like {@link CollectionType}) but also that most of supertype
+ * information is not gathered. This means that unless called on primitive types or
+ * {@link java.lang.String}, results are probably not what you want to use.
+ *
+ * @deprecated Since 2.8, to indicate users should never call this method.
