According to command line report for proposed API usage on 1.78.0 version of the builtins

• the removed proposed APIs (that are now public APIs) are impacting builtins, so the public API shall be updated according to these APIs.
• 2 extensions (markdown-language-features & ipynb) rely on proposed APIs that were modified (dropMetadata - added API and documentPaste - only comments)

Given that we're now way further along in the API version, I think this can be closed.
