In documentation for our users, we frequently use URLs with /my to make it easier for users to jump to their preferences, profiles, etc. For example:

[https://meta.discourse.org/t/preferences-redirect-routes-dont-survive-a-login/13004/5?u=wesochuck](https://meta.discourse.org/t/preferences-redirect-routes-dont-survive-a-login/13004/5)

Instead of: [https://meta.discourse.org/users/wesochuck/preferences](https://meta.discourse.org/users/wesochuck/preferences)

Is using /my in URLs considered a secret hidden feature ([like /last](https://meta.discourse.org/t/link-to-last-post-in-topic-no-longer-works-after-recent-updates/32415)) that might be depreciated in the future?
