Citation?

In http://msdn.microsoft.com/de-DE/library/aa367988.aspx and 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/de-DE/library/aa372024.aspx there's no mention 
of any deprecation and a quick duckduckgoogle didn't find anything either.

by the way - /qn! is illegal according to the docs, only /qb! works, but 
you don't want /qb in a script.

And back to reality, I did find a few MSIs that actually needed both 
/passive and /qn to work correctly. I have no idea what atrocities the 
authors put into those MSIs (and I mercily forgot their names). I do now 
that having /passive and /qn is redundant but they're still in there for a 
reason :)

Best Regards
 Heiko
