I didn't know that v.transform had any interactive functionality. How was it
accessed?
My only concern is that v.transform is used in the TclTk georectifier. It
uses the point file option. Let me know if any of the options or flags have
changed for this command.

IOW, the interactive mode hasn't worked for the last two years.

The patch marks -s as "superseded"; it still works, but the intention
for future versions is that failure to specify a pointsfile= option
will cause the shift/rotation parameters to be used.

IIRC that ineractive code isn't currently working.
I only object to removal if the (unused) interactive code includes
functionality that the non-interactive mode doesn't supply (yet). If
removed it will for all practical purposes be lost forever. If left
inactive maybe someone will merge it one day; the extra code bloat
is minor vs. the cost of duplicated development time.
I looked at this some months ago and whiel I don't remember all the
details, at that point I decided to leave the unused code in, either
because it wasn't fully merged into non-interactive mode, or it
contained something interesting.
e.g. RMS error reporting?
If I'm wrong about unported features and interesting things, then by
all means please do remove it.
OK, I only disabled interactive functionality, the code has not been removed.
