Being listed here is a definite sign that a feature behind a
configuration variable is considered experimental.  Do we have (and
if not, do we want to establish) a procedure to mark and announce a
feature that used to be experimental no longer is?  If it is enough
to mention it in the release notes, then I can take care of it, of
course.
