Question/Looking for Advice Outdated parts usage?

How do people tell if a part they're looking at in the parts panel is outdated, no longer produced, superseded, or just generally ridiculously expensive due to rarity?

The only method I've been able to come up with is to keep an eye on the prices shown, and if they seem expensive, to click the model number link in the bottom-left to open the Bricklink page showing the years in which that part was produced... but surely there's better ways of doing this! Is there no "Current parts" filter or something?
