After tracking down an issue I was having, I finally realized the cause was that I was using an outdated version of my X video driver. It looks like xf86-video-i810 (unbeknownst to me) has been renamed to xf86-video-intel, and that new development is continuing there.
If that's the case, then shouldn't we decommission the xf86-video-i810 package? Is there any reason to keep it around?

Well, I don't use the xf86-video-intel because it's buggier to me than i810 is. Anyway, the most important reason to keep using i810 is that I can get my laptop to suspend to RAM which i can't with the intel one. Please, do not remove the package. Just my two cents Damnshock
