Reasoning related to removal of Xposed module

[powerman]

1. What will change (for end-user) because of removal of Xposed module in latest release? This is an important question, because without an answer it's hard to decide is it worth to upgrade to latest version.
2. Is there any way to track when separate Xposed module will be released as a replacement? This is also an important question, because we need to know when to upgrade if upgrade will be delayed until replacement Xposed module will be available.
3. Why it was removed and why it was removed before releasing replacement? This is just a curiosity, previous two questions are much more important.

I think it's good idea to provide an answer on these questions in any form - e.g. in this issue or in wiki/FAQ.

Existing xposed module had limited functionality (preventing applications from misusing downloadmanger to get files). So with the removal it will work.

Code related to xposed was older and unmanaged. I did not even test it with LSPosed etc. Also I don't want integrate more external code into AFWall+ codebase (security concerns).

You can monitor this repo. It will get relased on github. No playstore.
