django.contrib.markup deprecated in 1.5 - what's the alternative?

I noticed that django.contrib.markup is marked as deprecated in Django
1.5 <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/markup/>. If
I'm starting a new project now, what alternative should I be using, to
avoid running into problems with future versions of Django? I could
write my own Markdown (or whatever) filter, but I wondered if there
was going to be a standard replacement built-in?

For bonus points - why are those filters being deprecated?
