I gave it another look and I'm actually not against against removing the replaceWith() altogether. I could not find any use case in our code to justify keeping it there. Of course, we would have to keep some similar method on the ClientBuilder API.

I'm going to remove the replaceWith() method completely (sans new method on ClientBuilder) unless anybody objects...
